Question - Maths

[manve1]

Is there a function which gets numbers between 60 and 100 (( not math.random )) which would get each second (( using timer ofc )) and would change a label color if number changes, i don't want the math.random as it generates number randomly, i want it to go down from 100 to 60

And if it is 90 to 100 (( 91, 92, 93 .. ect .. )) it will be one color, if its from 60 to 70 ( 61, 62, 63 .. ect )) it will be another color

[Castillo]

variable = 100 
  
variable = ( variable > 59 and variable - 1 ) 

You'll have to execute it on a timer.

[manve1]

I came up with this after ur post, but label is still white and it say's ''100 %'' on the label

setTimer( 
function( ) 
variable = 100 
variable = ( variable > 59 and variable - 1 ) 
  
if ( guiGetText( label ) == ''.. variable ..' %' ) then 
guiLabelSetColor( label, 0, 255, 0 ) 
end 
end, 50, 0 
)

You're re-setting value to 100. Move the variable out the function to load it once.

  
variable = 100 
  
setTimer( 
function( ) 
variable = ( variable > 59 and variable - 1 ) 
  
if ( guiGetText( label ) == variable ..' %' ) then 
guiLabelSetColor( label, 0, 255, 0 ) 
end 
end, 50, 0 
) 
  

[manve1]

it compared number with boolean when i done what you (( novo )) said

[Castillo]

Does "label" exist? post your full code.

[manve1]

label = guiCreateLabel( 0.855, 0.235, 0.1, 0.1, '0 %', true ) 
guiSetText( label, 100 ..' %' ) 
  
variable = 100 
  
setTimer( 
function( ) 
variable = ( variable > 59 and variable - 1 ) 
  
if ( guiGetText( label ) == variable ..' %' ) then 
guiLabelSetColor( label, 0, 255, 0 ) 
end 
end, 50, 0 
)

Try it and tell me the Results.

label = guiCreateLabel ( 0.855, 0.235, 0.1, 0.1, '0 %', true ) 
variable = 60 
      
setTimer ( 
    function ( ) 
        variable = variable + 1  
        if variable > 60 then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 0, 255, 0 ) 
        elseif variable > 70 then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        elseif variable > 80 then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 255, 255, 0 ) 
        elseif variable > 90 then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 0, 0, 255 )    
        elseif variable > 100 then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 0, 255, 255 )          
            variable = 60            
        end 
    end 
, 50, 0 )

problem, when its 50 its green

[Castillo]

percent = 100 
label = guiCreateLabel( 0.855, 0.235, 0.1, 0.1, percent ..' %', true ) 
  
setTimer ( 
    function ( ) 
        if ( percent > 59 ) then 
            percent = ( percent - 1 ) 
            guiSetText ( label, percent ..' %' ) 
            if ( guiGetText ( label ) == percent ..' %' ) then 
                guiLabelSetColor ( label, 0, 255, 0 ) 
            end 
        end 
    end 
    ,50, 0 
) 

[manve1]

it shouldn't go down then stop when its 59%, it should change color when its 0 to 30 <= red, 31 to 59 <= orange, 60 to 100 <= green

@3Nad your edited script didn't work too

[Castillo]

percent = 100 
label = guiCreateLabel( 0.855, 0.235, 0.1, 0.1, percent ..' %', true ) 
  
setTimer ( 
    function ( ) 
        if ( percent > 0 ) then 
            percent = ( percent - 1 ) 
            guiSetText ( label, percent ..' %' ) 
            local color = ( percent < 30 and { 255, 0, 0 } or percent < 60 and { 255, 50, 0 } or percent >= 60 and { 0, 255, 0 } ) 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, unpack ( color ) ) 
        end 
    end 
    ,50, 0 
) 

Works ( tested ).

[manve1]

This worked, but there isn't orange color, i tested few times, and i couldn't see orange color

[Castillo]

I did, but since the orange I set is really similar to red, you can confuse.

Change this:

255, 50, 0

To another orange code, like this:

255, 100, 0

[manve1]

after changing timer time, it somehow just ruins the 100 number and becomes 1000

[Castillo]

I don't understand what do you mean.

[3NAD]

Did you mean, Like this.

label = guiCreateLabel ( 0.855, 0.235, 0.1, 0.1, '0 %', true ) 
variable = 59 
      
setTimer ( 
    function ( ) 
        variable = variable + 1  
        guiSetText ( label, variable ..' %' ) 
        if ( variable >= 100 ) then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 0, 255, 255 )          
            variable = 59        
        elseif ( variable >= 90 ) then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 0, 0, 255 ) 
        elseif ( variable >= 80 ) then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 255, 255, 0 )          
        elseif ( variable >= 70 ) then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 255, 0, 0 ) 
        elseif ( variable >= 60 ) then 
            guiLabelSetColor ( label, 0, 255, 0 )            
        end 
    end 
, 500, 0 ) 

[manve1]

Thank you guys for the information how to do it, but I didn't mean like that 3NAD, but i re-made yours to make it work as i wanted and added for more things in there so i can't post the script as it now has more lines then that

[3NAD]

Ok, N.p
