olsonpm submitted a new mod:

Health Monitor - Beeps and bleeds when your health reaches a configurable percent

Read more about this mod...

 

I’d be more than happy to improve that invi sprite if you’d like!

 

I don't know what you mean by "invi sprite" but I'm interested in whatever you're suggesting

 

Inventory sprite :T
It looks kinda basic right now

 

go for it. I'm no artist haha

 

How to get the health monitor tool? Do I have to spawn it? if so , how?

 

Hi @PremanKampung - I'll make it more obvious in the post but there are two ways to get the health monitor.

1. A new character starts with one in their space locker
2. Everyone may purchase one at the Infinity Express.

Edit: I just modified the post. If there's anything else I can do to make the post more helpful let me know

 

I did it

 

Hey @Waffle-Chan thanks so much. I'll push this with my compatibility fixes most likely on sunday.

 

Ok. If you need me to edit any art or make completely create new art, just tell me

 

olsonpm updated Health Monitor with a new update entry:

Compatibility fix and icon update

Do you mind if I make an overworld sprite?

 

@Waffle-Chan haha again you'll have to explain what that is (I'm very new to starbound and have very limited experience in spriting). But I'll incorporate anything you make into my mod

 

When the character holds the item, it has a sprite. I wanna change it

 

Sounds great. I'll have to figure out how to define a different inventory icon vs overworld sprite but that shouldn't be difficult at all.

 

I could do that for you, I’ve done things similar to this before

 

There you are, one activeitem sprite

 

Awesome. I'll push this likely tomorrow.

 

@Waffle-Chan - It looks great. I found how to get the sprite configured for holding the item but I don't see any way for the sprite to appear when thrown on the ground. From my testing of vanilla active items, they all seem to use the `inventoryIcon` when laying on the ground.

Given the size difference I wanted to see what your thoughts were:

1. Leave as-is because it works and looks good
2. Decrease the size of the inventory icon to be a little closer to the overworld sprite (I'm thinking keep it a little bigger than the overworld sprite to not lose much detail)
3. Look further into using the overworld sprite for when the item is laying on the ground. I haven't asked on IRC and I could also browse existing mods to see if anyone's tackled this.

Let me know what you think

 

I think you should do #3, it seems to be the best
