Display actual number of bullets
This should be an easy one- While using the new GUI, how would I display the exact number of bullets/torpedos, etc in a slider? Currently, it works, but there are too many to start out with.
Why a slider? what wortks currently? There are too many of what to start out with? Please be more clear.
$$anonymous$$y apologies. I used a slider for the battery, which works quite well, so I thought I would try a slider. Would you recommend something else? In this case, I want to show how many torpedos I have. If I start with 4, I want to display just four. Right now, there are many more showing up than the variable number tells. Does that help?
Hold on a second. First you talked about bullets, then battery, and now torpedos? Just call it ammo, it's less confusing :)
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class PlayerGUI : MonoBehaviour {
public Text text_ammo;
public int ammo;
public int ammo_max;
public void UpdateAmmoText() {
text_ammo.text = ammo.ToString() + "/" + ammo_max.ToString();
}
}
You have to drag you Text UI Object into the text_ammo slot in the inspector. Set the ammo and ammo_max however you want, and call the UpdateAmmoText option whenever one of the values change (Firing, reloading).
A slider is possible as well of course, check the Scripting API for the relevant variables.
