Health Meter

[Tikithehut]

Hello!

I was wondering if anyone has made or heard of someone making a health bar system for enemies in UT3. I'm thinking about adding a boss type enemy to one of my levels and was toying with the idea of using a health meter to show damage progress. Anyone know of anything? Thanks much all!

you just need to learn how to tell it to use it where you want

i was thinking of someone making an onscreen health meter icon, right in the center of the screen like a UT3 logo. The closer you are to dying the darker the logo gets, the opposite would make the logo fainter.

Sweet, so there's a graphic and everything? It just needs to be implemented? If so that's awesome. Do you know where I might start looking for that? Is it in the code somewhere, or maybe a kismet node? Thanks much for the tip!

Well, yeah, in Warfare and vCTF, you can see the vehicle's health bar above the vehicle with the driver's name (assuming someone's in it). So, it would just be a matter of applying it to the boss character.
