Title: Event list
Post by: WMCoolmon on June 30, 2006, 12:16:55 am

Little doohickey that I used to test the event scripting stuff. (and maybe played with a bit more)

Here's a shot of it in action. (http://fs2source.warpcore.org/temp/wmc/eventlist.jpg)

Preamble/Configuration
The event list is drawn using the function drawEventList() in the $HUD hook. It has five arguments:

nXPos = X position
nYPos = Y position
nStayTime = Time that the list should wait to fade out, after an event change has occured.
nAutoScrollAfter = Scroll down the list after X events have been completed
nNumToShow = Maximum number of events to show at once.

Quick Install
Extract the .zip to your data/tables directory, the scripting.tbl is set up to automatically show the event list. Use 3.6.9 RC3.

Say, what's that "Muahahahaha" event in the screeny do? Something of indescribable evil?

That would be the Belisarius arrival message ("Incoming jump signature. It's the Belisarius!"). I personally would have liked it to be "As you wish."
