progress bar question

[chylder]

having issues creating a progress bar of a data type that isn't rounded off to even numbers, or at least, that's the only difference i can figure.. most percentile variables in the game are round, ie: 0-100 percent.. however, there's at least 2 that carry a tenths place.. ie: 0.0-100.0 percent.. and that seems to make a difference in that i can't seem to get the bar to update, anyone have any clues on how to get /GameData.Stats.Defense_MitigationPercent to update correctly in a bar?

Edit: anyone know if there's a data filter that would round off the decimal? basically making the result into an integer?

The displayed text % (45.6%) and the Progress value used by the bars (0.456) are actually seperate data filters. Text is 0x0002, Progress is 0x0040.

My guess is that Progress isn't sent for Defense_MitigationPercent, which is why you can't get a progress bar working for it. If that is the case, there's nothing we can do. We can't use a script to convert from Text to Progress if the text already has a % sign, and even if we could, you'd have use an OnEvent like hovering over the bar to get it to update.

the text doesn't carry a %, but how would you go about scripting a change like that, even with an OnEvent?

If it even would work, you would have do somthing like this.

<Text Name='ValueHolder'... DynamicDatat='what erver dada u want'>.456</Text>
<What_ever OnHoverIn='(line 1 convert math) Progress_bar.Position=ValueHolder.LocalText' />

Somthing along those lines is what your looking for but as Deathbane said it's porb not going to fly.

Text doesn't carry a %? Excellent.

Here's the script you'll want for the bar:

OnHoverIn="Progress=((Parent.DefenseMitigationTextObject.Localtext)/100)"

Hmm in that case, I would add the dynamic data to a slidbar and use the onchange event to update the progressbar, no hover event needed then. That is if the slidebar will take that sort of data.
