Yeah I'm aware of this bug there's a new version on the way that has the fix for it.

[Update] 0.9.7
- Updated to new HUD_SHOW event solving a lot of problems
- Fixed /hud health mode displaying red on login regardless of health, used PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED event
- Added support for Rin's BountyHUD (http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/16/27607)
- Fixed the chat bar showing up on login
- Fixed the bug where users of the archaic FAMY version of Voce got an error
- Other minor code improvements

Everyone should get this version it is much better than the other ones and fixes lots of annoying problems.

Okay there is a serious bug with /hud heath mode at the moment lol

[Update] 0.9.8
SLAUGHTERED that bug for /hud health mode

I can't find an event that works for this, even at HUD_SHOW on the login sequence local currenthp = GetPlayerHealth(GetCharacterID()) still returns -1. The looping timers until correct logic solution I have now is pretty tacky so i'm open to suggestions on how to improve it but it does function now. Worst case scenario is someone loops the logic while theyre in a trident or something but as soon as you undock the conditions will fix themselves and the loop will stop.

You don't want to call GetPlayerHealth() until after the PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED event. BUT it is complicated by the fact that you won't get valid values while the player is in a station, so in that case you want to wait until HUD_SHOW.

Another pitfall is that PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED does not trigger again after reloading the interface, so HUD_SHOW is the only event you need to watch for in that case.

See below for the sequence of events under various circumstances. Looks like the best option is to wait for HUD_SHOW to trigger, testing if GetPlayerHealth() returns -1, and if it does, wait even longer until PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED.

The test code I used to generate the info below can be found here: http://pastebin.com/1H6VEAhC

Enter game in station:
PLAYER_ENTERED_GAME: GetCharacterID() = nil
PLAYER_ENTERED_SECTOR: -1
PLAYER_UPDATE_STATS: -1
PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED: -1
ENTERED_STATION: -1
>>After launching...
HUD_SHOW: valid

Enter game in space:
PLAYER_ENTERED_GAME: GetCharacterID() = nil
PLAYER_ENTERED_SECTOR: -1
PLAYER_UPDATE_STATS: -1
HUD_SHOW: -1
PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED: valid

Reload Interface in station:
PLAYER_ENTERED_GAME: -1
>>After launching...
HUD_SHOW: valid

Reload Interface in space:
PLAYER_ENTERED_GAME: valid
HUD_SHOW: valid

Changing characters in station (assumes targetless not loaded):
PLAYER_ENTERED_GAME: GetCharacterID() = nil
PLAYER_ENTERED_SECTOR: -1
PLAYER_UPDATE_STATS: -1
PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED: -1
ENTERED_STATION: -1
>>After launching...
HUD_SHOW: valid

Changing characters in space (assumes targetless not loaded):
PLAYER_ENTERED_GAME: GetCharacterID() = nil
PLAYER_ENTERED_SECTOR: -1
PLAYER_UPDATE_STATS: -1
SECTOR_LOADED: -1
HUD_SHOW: -1
PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED: valid

Jumping to another sector:
PLAYER_ENTERED_SECTOR: -1
PLAYER_UPDATE_STATS: -1
SECTOR_LOADED: -1
PLAYER_STATS_UPDATED: -1
HUD_SHOW: valid

When you finish a race tube, your ship gets repaired. FlamboyanceHUD doesn't currently notice this. The SHIP_UPDATED and INVENTORY_UPDATE events both get triggered as you pass the finish line, so you could have it check the health when one of those is caught.

Someone watching one of our old Viper videos noted that this plugin is no longer available. The OP's link currently results in a DNS error, and after about 10 minutes of searching I couldn't locate it on any of the databases.

Here: re-uploaded it for you.

http://www.voupr.com/plugin.php?name=flamboyancehud

Thanks kierky.

I'll add that mirror to the OP.

If anybody decides to fix that bug that rin posted, I suggest not using INVENTORY_UPDATE. That could cause all sorts of issues and I remember that event being responsible for a bug that caused shooting to lag people out.

It's broken! Oh noes!

(,╯︵╰,)

I don't know when I will have time to fix it, can someone post the lua errors?

here ya go, sorry for the delay TRS:

the bug itself? Your display becomes the colour you set. HUD elements appear above, but no gamespace gets rendered, likely an image being rendered above the gamespace but below the HUD itself? Here's an image...



The bug occurs only after trying to set the HUD or after an interface reset after trying to set it. plugin must be removed to fix.

We will call this Version 0.9.7

I have fixed this bug. Ray made a change to the locations of the HUD elements that were being changed. The plugin is back to a working state. I cannot be assed to remember my login to VOUPR so I will post the main.lua below with the fixes should anyone wish to patch their versions.

FlamboyanceHUD
A plugin to dynamically change the colour of HUD elements based on conditions, events or custom preferences

By [RED] Espionage

I am the alpha and omega. Time capsule - Incarnate is being evasive about how the dynamic economy works on 4 September 2020

Version 0.0.9.7

Mode ideas
(1) Manufacturers HUD Mode: Changes the HUD depending on the manufactuer of the ship to their company colours TODO NOTE: Add control mechanism and loading and solve problem of what to do if generic manufacturer
(2) Health Mode: Green for 100% health and progressively going through yellow and then red as your HP decreases TODO: Event doesnt work on login
(3) Random mode: Gives you a random colour every time you undock
(4) Nebula Contrast Mode: Sets a different colour depending on the system you are in to contrast the nebula (example: Dau - 120 255 120) TODO
(5) Nebula complement mode: same as contrast mode except matches the nebula colour (example: Pelatus - 190 255 190, sedina 190 190 255) TODO
(6) Ship colour mode: HUD colour conforms to the colour of the ship you're flying
(7) Warranty Sales Streak mode: Starts out white but gets progressively redder as you earn a larger kill streak, suggested by Savet TODO
(8) Race mode: Blue for Itani, Yellow for UIT, Red for Serco TODO: Events arent working for this one, doesnt load race on login
(9) Custom mode: sets HUD to custom palette
(10) Faction space mode: set HUD colour based on whos faction space you are in

Also maybe NFZ unique colour when you enter a NFZ or maybe a mode that flashes when you take damage to replace the damage flash TODO: Investigate if this will work

TODO: the fixtargetless function doesnt need a timer anymore it can use the SECTOR_LOADED event on login. May still need a solution for when reload interface happens.
TODO: The login events dont seem to work very well for the Health and Race mode, I think its because the API functions they rely on don't work until after all the events. NOTE: Potential solution for race mode is to save default values in the config from when they first do the command, its sector notes so it will be the same for race mode. Still need a solution to health mode, maybe a timer?

I trayed updated code and got this

stack traceback:

You can delete that line 427. I just updated the above post to remove the offending code. If you try it again it should work now. Sorry, that was an oversight.

Could you maybe upload the plugin somewhere?

this must be your lucky day:
