I wanted my game to have a slider bar and tried to do it myself from scratch. I couldn't find any examples where someone had made something like this (I could also suck at googling) so I figured I'd post my rough version so that people could improve upon it if they wish.
The code is still a bit of a work in progress, but all the main functionality works quite well:
- Color changes at set points to add some dynamism (points are roughly hard-coded into fifths)
- Tick marks show you where the color changes (just a little flair to make it look prettier)
- One variable is used to keep track of where to put the slider sprite on the X axis as well as how far to fill the bar (you can access this to modify stuff, for example)
- Minimum and maximum values so the slider sprite stays locked inside the bar
I took some of the mouse code from here: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=43344
I removed the parts about hovering on stuff as I didn't need that.
Let me know what you think! This is my first time posting something so I hope you like it and look forward to some constructive criticism
