Loading UI
Created UI
Step 1: You need to remember to change the width of the process picture to 0
Step 2: Also, you need to remember the first width of the process picture
Script
local loading_picture = nil local ratio = nil local the_first_width_value = nil -- Define the game function to update the UI function game(obj) repeat -- Set the size of the UI element Customui:setSize(obj.eventobjid, loading_picture[1], loading_picture[2], width_value, 86) -- Increment the width value by a random number between 0 and 5 width_value = width_value + math.random(6) --Calculate the percentage of the current width relative to the initial width local percentage = (width_value / the_first_width_value) * 100 -- Set the text with the calculated percentage (formatted with no decimal places) Customui:setText(obj.eventobjid, ratio[1], ratio[2], string.format("%.0f%%", percentage)) -- Wait for 0.01 seconds before the next iteration Trigger:wait(0.01) -- If the width value exceeds the initial width, set it to the initial width if width_value > the_first_width_value then width_value = the_first_width_value end -- Repeat until the width value reaches the initial width until width_value == the_first_width_value end -- Register the game function to be triggered when the UI is shown ScriptSupportEvent:registerEvent("UI.Show", game)
Explanation
Variable Initialization
local loading_picture = nil local ratio = nil local the_first_width_value = nil loading_picture = nil -- Replace with your picture IDs ratio = nil -- Replace with your ratio IDs
These lines initialize some variables:
- loading_picture: Holds identifiers for UI elements related to the loading picture.
- ratio: Holds identifiers for UI elements related to displaying the percentage.
- the_first_width_value: Stores the initial width value of the loading bar.
Game Function
function game(obj) repeat -- Set the size of the UI element Customui:setSize(obj.eventobjid, loading_picture[1], loading_picture[2], width_value, 86)
- game(obj): A function that runs when a specific event (UI showing) occurs.
- repeat: Starts a loop that will run until the specified condition is met.
- Customui:setSize: Sets the size of the UI element (loading_picture). The parameters are:
- obj.eventobjid: The ID of the object triggering the event.
- loading_picture[1]: The first identifier for the loading picture.
- loading_picture[2]: The second identifier for the loading picture.
- width_value: The current width of the loading bar.
- 86: A fixed height for the loading bar.
-- Increment the width value by a random number between 0 and 5 width_value = width_value + math.random(6)
- math.random(6): Generates a random number between 0 and 5 and adds it to width_value.
-- Calculate the percentage of the current width relative to the initial width local percentage = (width_value / the_first_width_value) * 100 -- Set the text with the calculated percentage (formatted with no decimal places) Customui:setText(obj.eventobjid, ratio[1], ratio[2], string.format("%.0f%%", percentage))
- Calculates the percentage that width_value represents of the_first_width_value.
- Customui:setText: Sets the text of the UI element (ratio) to display the percentage.
- obj.eventobjid: The ID of the object triggering the event.
- ratio[1]: The first identifier for the ratio text.
- ratio[2]: The second identifier for the ratio text.
-- Wait for 0.01 seconds before the next iteration Trigger:wait(0.01) -- If the width value exceeds the initial width, set it to the initial width if width_value > the_first_width_value then width_value = the_first_width_value end -- Repeat until the width value reaches the initial width until width_value == the_first_width_value end
- Trigger:wait(0.01): Pauses the loop for 0.01 seconds.
- Checks if width_value exceeds the_first_width_value and if so, resets width_value to the_first_width_value.
- The until loop condition ensures the loop runs until width_value equals the_first_width_value.
- Registering the Game Function
ScriptSupportEvent:registerEvent("UI.Show", game)
ScriptSupportEvent:registerEvent(“UI.Show”, game): Registers the game function to be called when the UI.Show event occurs.
Summary
This script initializes variables and defines a function (game) that simulates a loading bar increasing over time by updating the width and percentage text of UI elements. The function runs in a loop, increasing the width incrementally until it reaches a specified initial width. The function is triggered by the UI.Show event.
