31. Add 3 game properties to the health bar
- Logic Editor menu >> View >> Properties
- Properties tab >> Add Game Property button
Note:
- We are adding 3 game properties that will be used as variables by the python script.
- One for the sensor name. Another for the actuator name. And the last for the health.
- This way we can use one (and only one) python script for ALL of the Health Bars in the game.
32. First Game Property
- Logic Editor >> Properties tab >> Property Name: sen
- Logic Editor >> Properties tab >> Property Type: String
- Logic Editor >> Properites tab >> Property Value: Message
Note:
- Property Name must be named sen (for Sensor).
- The code in HealthBar.py looks for a string Game Property named sen.
- Property Name is the name of your message sensor. I left mine with the default name of Message
33. Second Game Property
- Logic Editor >> Properties tab >> Property Name: act
- Logic Editor >> Properties tab >> Property Type: String
- Logic Editor >> Properites tab >> Property Value: Property
Note:
- Property Name must be named act (for actuator).
- The code in HealthBar.py looks for a string Game Property named act.
- Property Name is the name of your action actuator. I left mine with the default name of Property
34. Third Game Property
- Logic Editor >> Properties tab >> Property Name: Health
- Logic Editor >> Properties tab >> Property Type: Integer
- Logic Editor >> Properites tab >> Property Value: 100
Note:
- Property Name must be named Health.
- The code in HealthBar.py looks for a integer Game Property named Health.
35. Action Actuator Type: Property
