[JASS] multiboard color question

[deathismyfriend]

well im using thi MultiboardSetItemValueColor and as u know it just has the rgb color code i was wondering what to set the color values at so it shows red for p1 blue for p2 and so on

Pretty simple to do:

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- Red color for red player (1). --------
    • Set Color[1] = |cffFF0000
    • -------- Blue color for blue player (2). --------
    • Set Color[2] = |cff0000FF
    • -------- Teal color for teal player (3). --------
    • Set Color[3] = |cff00FF00
    • -------- And so on... --------

You should put these actions in the map init.

thts gui not jass

 

[Wrda]

You just need to convert it to custom text and put it in the init trigger

 

[deathismyfriend]

it wont work like tht since i cant use colors i can only use the rgb color code aka 255,255,255

 

[Wrda]

erm, don't use it. it's more accurate doing this:

call MultiboardSetItemValueBJ( MultiboardName, 1, 1, ( udg_Color[GetConvertedPlayerId(WhichPlayer)] + "Text" ) )

You set the string of colour variable to each player number then use it in SetItemValue with text.

dont use bjs they r slower than natives lol no reason to comment if u dont use jass

 

[Wrda]

Yes it is slower, but I didn't say to use this bj. This was meant to use SetItemValue with a variable which was set in a init trigger + text after.

Hi, do you have JNGP? If not, get it:

Do you know how to inline BJ functions yourself? If not, learn:

Do you know how the RGB model works? If not, learn:

lastly, you can change the color of text in a multiboard using standard wc3 color codes within the string using |ffRRGGBBtext|r as Wrda is trying to describe.

Good luck.
