Post by: hubertMichael on April 17, 2012, 07:54:13 PM

Hi

I want make some kind of health bar for my character. It should be displayed all the time in the same place on screen. I have no idea how to do it. I need some tip, some example will be awesome.

Thanks.

I did it :)

A little hack but it works. I did window object as a background for my health bar. Then I did nested window object as a indicator of energy level. Thanks to GetWidget method I can control position of my nested window. So displaying energy level is like updateing position of nested window.
