Hi all

I tryed a lot but did not get to make a script which takes numbers (not random, like 0, then 1, then 2...) for an array.

Could somebody help me?

Greetings

Ok it's been a while but I'll give this a go (assuming you want to count up):

//other code
max = 0;
while(i = 0; i >= max; i++)  
{
iprintln(i);
wait 1.0;
}

No, it's to display different Hud messages with the same settings.

	self.mess[num] = newClientHudElem(self);

If I want to display more then one message, the different messages need a different value for numl. So I need to make a type of loop I think which sets a new value on the number if the number before is not destroyed (= the hud vefore is not destroyed).

I'm a little confused. Can you explain what you want to do more thoroughly?

If you just want a set of rotating messages in the same place there is no need to create new hudelems for each one - you can just change the contents of the message.

There will be 2 or 3 lines, one under the other, with the same hud characteristics. And at the same time. So with one script he need to look which number of hud he takes, and then, if the number is e.g. 1, the y position will be X+(num*12) (X the original position, num in this case 1), and if it's an other line, he makes num*13 (num = 2 e.g.) (and the first one is X+(num*12), num = 0, so the original position X.

In other words: Different players get different messages with the same caracteristics, and I don't want to make

	self.message_1 = newClientHudElem(self);	
	self.message_2 = newClientHudElem(self);	
	self.message_3 = newClientHudElem(self);	
        ...

I would like to make

        self.message[num] = newClientHudElem(self);

but therefor I need something which gets the number. (and if 1 is got, then it needs to get 2, and so on)

in init or smthing:

level.messages[0]="random message";
level.messages[1]="another random message";
level.currentmessage=0;
for(i=0;i<level.messages.size;i++)
       precachestring(level.messages[i];

per player messages:

self.messagehudelem=newclienthudelem(self);
self.messagehudelem settext(level.messages[level.currentmessage]);
level.currentmessage++;
if(level.currentmessage>level.messages.size)
      level.currentmessage=0;

But this does not work with what I need.

I do it like this:

//in any part of the tdm.gsc
self thread showMessage(&"YOU_WERE_KILLED");
self thread showMessage(&"NOW_YOU_DIE");	

And then the thread:

ShowMessage(message)
{
        //and now here would need to be this number definer and checker
	self.message[num] = newClientHudElem(self);	
	self.message[num].x = 0;
	self.message[num].y = -100;
	self.message[num].alignX = "center";
	self.message[num].alignY = "middle";
	self.message[num].horzAlign = "center_safearea";
	self.message[num].vertAlign = "center_safearea";
	self.message[num].alpha = 1;
	self.message[num].archived = false;
	self.message[num].font = "bigfixed";
	self.message[num].fontScale = 0.625;
	self.message[num].label = (message);

	wait 6;

	self.message[num] fadeOverTime(2);
	self.message[num].alpha = 0;
	self.message[num] destroy();
}

Why dont you just destroy the old hudelem?

Because the messages dont appear one after the other, they appear at the same time.
