Hi guys,

 

Just a small mod to make the Team Names display a little more useful:

 

The Mod keeps track of the current HP pools for both teams nearly in realtime. The mod can only update the hp for tanks that are spotted obviously (means all tanks on your own team), so there is no "cheating" with knowing HP values of hidden enemy tanks.

 

(If they get damaged off screen and reappear with a changed HP value however that is taken into account. Same if they suicide or die without being spotted. Even a doofus can conclude their hp are 0 then. )

 

I dropped the Mod API configuration because of ongoing problems. I returned to a version with xml config in res_mods.

 

As a note, If you are using the XVM feature to hide the "Own Team | Enemy Team" text, you obviously have to reenable this one to see this HP Pool bar.

Spoiler

Usually inside battle.xc:

 

"fragCorrelation": {
    // true - hide textfields "Allies | Enemies".
    // true - cпрятать два текстовых поля "Союзники | Противники".
    "hideTeamTextFields": false

Enjoy!

Not yet...this part is hardcoded atm...I will maybe make a config once eventual bugs are weeded out. ;)

 

But you can decompile the pyc file to change it if you like. :)

What took you so long? :P

[DarthWanderer]

lol :D

 

but... after i installed this, i have issues in CW - recently died tanks still appear as alive (that means, not moving, but with HPs). i haven't changed mod setup for weeks, except this and XVM update...

[locastan]

That was not a single time thing where maybe the crew got killed on that tank?

 

You have a replay of this one?

Error...replay not found or deleted....

[DarthWanderer]

[locastan]

Okay..I think i found the problems and removed the cause:

 

Update 811 a:

- Fixed Clanwars messup. Now the enemy team healthbar is also removed when playing with fog of war. Just plain added up numbers for spotted and identified tanks on enemy team.

- Added a config file for text and healthbar symbol configuration.

[DarthWanderer]

great, going to test it :)

Suggestions:

• Can you add something like CW unopened tank expection?
  Like $unspottedHP for unknown tanks (i.e. 3000 per tank) and $potentialHP for sum of $enemyHP and $unspottedHP.
  So you can guess that there are 6000 more HP when in CW only 13 enemies are spotted.

 

Also:

• The texts get clipped when I use a thicker healthbar symbol or longer team texts (e.g. "Eigenes Team").
• Can you delete the space symbol between the healthbar symbols? I can't get the single symbols connect to make something like a real bar, even if the unicode symbol has no leading or following space.

[DarthWanderer]

one small flaw loca, so far - do you think you can make the frame for the bar bigger?? see pic, default settings

 

[Alkohool]

I really would like to see another feature - it would be really nice to have an indicator how much overall dmg you have to do to get High Caliber.

[DarkMo]

hey, one idea: i will start with a fictive example: lets say team 1 has 27k hp and team 2 has 30k hp (even at start). can you than create an indicator, that schows the difference? i would suggest a %-value. in our example it can look like:

A (27000) | | | | | | | | | | < 10% | | | | | | | | | | (30000) E

 

calculation: higher value = 100% so 100 / 30k = x / 27k -> x = 100 * 27k / 30k = 90% => show 100-x -> 10%.

if our team is "better", than ofc i.e ... 8% > ... ^^
