Huds appears invisible sometime.. weird :/

[ORDI]

Hello everybody,
i have a problem with my Huds, "They work" but sometime in the server, some huds appears invisible.
i thought i had too many of Huds but nop with only 3 Huds in a mod zom: Money, streak and nade
these 3 Huds bugs often.
However the script Money and streak are the only that i isn't make. I took from killtube when i started to make scripts.

i tried to do some test about it:
1)On all the functions, put:
-thread maps\mp\gametypes\_scripts::money();
-thread maps\mp\gametypes\_scripts::streak();
it dont work.
2)i'm making a thing in menu ingame when it dont work:
6.reload Huds
script:

if(response == reload)
{
thread maps\mp\gametypes\_scripts::money();
thread maps\mp\gametypes\_scripts::streak();
self iprintlnbold("huds reloaded");
}
i have the message but it dont work..
someone have a idea ?

money script and streak script:

money()
{
self.hudmoney = newClientHudElem(self);
self.hudmoney.alignx = "right";
self.hudmoney.x = 610;
self.hudmoney.y = 285;
self.hudmoney.fontscale = 1.4;
self.hudmoney.label = &"^7Money^1: &&1^7$";

while(1)
{
wait(0.2);
if(isdefined(self))
{
self.hudmoney setValue(self.money);
}
else if(!isdefined(self))
{
break;
}
}
}


streak()
{
if(isdefined(self.streak))
self.streak destroy();

self.streak = newClientHudElem(self);
self.streak.alignx = "right";
self.streak.x = 610;
self.streak.y = 305;
self.streak.fontscale = 1.3;

while(1)
{
wait(0.5);
if(isdefined(self))
{
if(self.pers["team"] == "allies")
{
self.streak.label = &"^7KillStreak: ^1&&1";
self.streak setValue(self.killstreak);
}
else
if(self.pers["team"] == "axis")
{
self.streak.label = &"^7DeathStreak: ^1&&1";
self.streak setValue(self.deathstreak);

}
}
else if(!isdefined(self))
{
break;
}
}
}

And all the Huds are precached.

in .cfg:

set logfile "2"
set sv_fps "20"

developper 0
dedicated 2

i am actually on a local server but on a real server, it dont work also.
i hope you will help me ;)

Test with developer 1

[filthy_freak_]

self.hudmoney.label = &"^7Money^1: &&1^7$";
self.streak.label = &"^7KillStreak: ^1&&1";
self.streak.label = &"^7DeathStreak: ^1&&1";


Pretty sure this needs to be precached. Can't tell if you changed it for the purpose of this post.

If not;



game["blah_text"] = &"^7Money^1: &&1^7$";
precacheString(game["blah_text"]);

self.hudmoney.label = game["blah_text"];


edit:

Also, you forget to destroy self.hudmoney. Again, not sure if this is intentional.



money()
{
if(isDefined(self.hudmoney))
self.hudmoney destroy();

self.hudmoney = newClientHudElem(self);
self.hudmoney.alignx = "right";
self.hudmoney.x = 610;
self.hudmoney.y = 285;
self.hudmoney.fontscale = 1.4;
self.hudmoney.label = &"^7Money^1: &&1^7$";

while(1)
{
wait(0.2);
if(isdefined(self))
{
self.hudmoney setValue(self.money);
}
else if(!isdefined(self))
{
break;
}
}
}


Or, if you intentionally don't want it deleted;



money()
{
if(!isDefined(self.hudmoney)) {
self.hudmoney = newClientHudElem(self);
self.hudmoney.alignx = "right";
self.hudmoney.x = 610;
self.hudmoney.y = 285;
self.hudmoney.fontscale = 1.4;
self.hudmoney.label = &"^7Money^1: &&1^7$";
}

while(1)
{
wait(0.2);
if(isdefined(self))
{
self.hudmoney setValue(self.money);
}
else if(!isdefined(self))
{
break;
}
}
}

Your money hud doesnt get destroyed, it gets re-created every time, overflowing hud count.

[ORDI]

before i had placed

if(isDefined(self.hudmoney))
self.hudmoney destroy();
i got a error weird sometime. idk what was this error
but it appears still invisible

and when i say precache:


precacheString(&"^7Money^1: &&1^7$");
precacheString(&"^7KillStreak: ^1&&1");
precacheString(&"^7DeathStreak: ^1&&1");

a video in showing the hud money which work and which dont work:

I'v tested the code and it works fine.

This means the problem must be elsewhere.

Try and debug your code....



money()
{
if(isDefined(self.hudmoney))
self.hudmoney destroy();

self.hudmoney = newClientHudElem(self);
self.hudmoney.alignx = "right";
self.hudmoney.x = 610;
self.hudmoney.y = 285;
self.hudmoney.fontscale = 1.4;
self.hudmoney.label = &"^7Money^1: &&1^7$";

while(1)
{
wait(0.2);
if(isdefined(self) && isDefined(self.money))
{
self.hudmoney setValue(self.money);
}
else if(!isDefined(self.money))
{
self iprintlnbold("self.money is undefined!");
break;
}
else if(!isdefined(self))
{
self iprintlnbold("self is undefined!");
break;
}
}
}




streak()
{
if(isdefined(self.streak))
self.streak destroy();

self.streak = newClientHudElem(self);
self.streak.alignx = "right";
self.streak.x = 610;
self.streak.y = 305;
self.streak.fontscale = 1.3;

while(1)
{
wait(0.5);
if(isdefined(self))
{
if(self.pers["team"] == "allies")
{
if(isDefined(self.killstreak))
{
self.streak.label = &"^7KillStreak: ^1&&1";
self.streak setValue(self.killstreak);
} else {
iprintlnbold("self.killstreak is undefined!");
break;
}
}
else
if(self.pers["team"] == "axis")
{
if(isDefined(self.deathstreak))
{
self.streak.label = &"^7DeathStreak: ^1&&1";
self.streak setValue(self.deathstreak);
} else {
iprintlnbold("self.deathstreak is undefined!");
break;
}
}
}
else if(!isdefined(self))
{
iprintln("self is undefined!");
break;
}
}
}




i got a error weird sometime.

Try fixing the error, like izno said, if you don't destroy it you will overflow your hud count.


EDIT: You will probably find the problem easy if you were to set developer 1.

[ORDI]

euhm developer 1:
it do nothing.

i did what you said:

wait(0.2);
if(isdefined(self) && isDefined(self.money))
{
self.hudmoney setValue(self.money);
}
else if(!isDefined(self.money))
{
self iprintlnbold("self.money is undefined!");
break;
}
else if(!isdefined(self))
{
self iprintlnbold("self is undefined!");
break;
}
results:
i cant see:
self iprintlnbold("self.money is undefined!");
and
self iprintlnbold("self is undefined!");
when it dont work.

I'm not going to debug your code, what I said was mostly meant to be an example of what you should be doing.

Also, you mentioned you can write your own code. Why did you copy this script, modify it and ask us for help when it doesn't work, instead of writing a script yourself? This could be re-written to suit your needs in under two minutes. I sound harsh but come on... this script is easy!

If self is undefined then you are calling your scripts wrong.
