Ammo Counter & Timer Help

TR FAN 18 · 16-05-09, 09:02

OK, two things I want to do in my level:

1. I have just got the ammo counter to display on screen but all I want it to do is to show only the number of bullets left and not have the ammo name by the number.

2. I want to have an on-screen timer that displays the time elapsed. I can get this to appear but I want this to be in the top right and I don't want the "milliseconds" part of it. Also, how can I change the colour of it?

I don't think that's possible. Try using TREP. That has
the features you want.

Unfortunately, I'm using TRNG and TREP is not compatible with this.

I know, but what you want cannot be done with
TRNG. larafriend's BRLR features those,
well, features. So, sorry, you'll have to swap to
TREP then.

1. Will be changed soon by Paolone, so that it´s without the ammo name.
2. You can´t format the screen timer, but you can do a countdowntimer and format that one. Look here: http://www.skribblerz.net/forums/ind...showtopic=1611

Ah, OK. However, you helped me discover the TIMER_FIELD trigger type which will certainly be useful.

Thanks for the help.
