m!m you are a king.
Thanks mate.

Things after a # are shown on the script...
I don't think that should be happening or people can see right through the microjump tricks etc.

Notice that the ship "FRX-00#1" in the escort list appears as FRX-00 as it should, but appears on the reticle boxing thingy as FRX-00#1



that and it still appears to be drawing for the targeted ship (I got this off the Wiki not so long ago)

m!m updated the script a couple posts back

Here you go:

Code: [Select]

#Conditional Hooks

$Application: FS2_Open
$On Game Init:
[
function string.filterInvisible(str)
    local index = str:find("#", 0, true)

    if (index ~= nil) then
        str = str:sub(1, index - 1)
    end

    return str
end

function drawReticle(ship)
local r, g, b = ship.Team:getColor()
gr.setColor(r, g, b, 120)

local l, t, r, b = gr.drawTargetingBrackets(ship, true)

if l ~= nil then
local dist = ship.Position:getDistance(hv.Player.Position)
local distString = string.format("%.0fm", dist)

gr.drawString(ship.Name:filterInvisible(), r + 3, t)
gr.drawString(ship.Class.Name:filterInvisible())

local hit_x = r + 3
local hit_y = b - gr.CurrentFont.Height
local percentage = ship.HitpointsLeft / ship.HitpointsMax

local hitpointsString

if (percentage <= 0) then
percentage = 0
end

hitpointsString = string.format("%.1f%%", percentage * 100)

if (t + 2 * gr.CurrentFont.Height > b - gr.CurrentFont.Height) then
gr.drawString(hitpointsString)
else
gr.drawString(hitpointsString, hit_x, hit_y)
end

gr.drawString(distString, r - gr.getStringWidth(distString), b + 3)
end
end
]

$On HUD Draw:
[
if missiontime == nil then
   missiontime = mn.getMissionTime()
   oldmissiontime = missiontime
end

if missiontime ~= nil then
if hu.HUDDrawn then
missiontime = mn.getMissionTime()

if oldmissiontime ~= missiontime then
if mn.EscortShips ~= nil then
local NumberEscorted = #mn.EscortShips
for i= 1,NumberEscorted do
local escortedship = mn.EscortShips[i]
if escortedship.Position:getScreenCoords() ~= false and escortedship ~= hv.Player.Target then
drawReticle(escortedship)
end
end
end
end
end

oldmissiontime = missiontime
end
]

#End
 
Disclaimer: Script not tested in current state but used code has been in use for some time so it should work.

Well why isn't that on the wiki? :/

[Spoon]

Well you could have read the first page before posting 

[Droid803]

I did, and I thought that the Wiki would have been updated, seeing as well, it is linked on the first page >.>

Okay, did some more test runs with the script and noted several deficiencies:

- Alt name isn't being read, the class name is always the default
- Brackets are not sensitive to change-IFF-color sexps (they always stay the team color)

That really wrecks a lot of the "FRED hacks" for missions...

That's because neither of these have accessors in scripting, so you're out of luck in those until someone adds them to the scripting API.
