OTClient createWidget is it possible to display text on x,y,z

[henkas]

Hello is it possible to display without any source changes or stuff like that to display text trough otclient on x,y,z with createWidget? Basically a tile widgets i heard that its unique system and not really possible without writing a custom shit for it

You could add a check in this function: otclientv8/modules/game_walking/walking.lua at master · OTAcademy/otclientv8 (https://github.com/OTAcademy/otclientv8/blob/master/modules/game_walking/walking.lua#L342)

function checkTargetPosition(newPos)
  local targetPositions = {
    {x = 32000, y = 32000, z = 7},
  }

  for _, target in ipairs(targetPositions) do
    if newPos.x == target.x and newPos.y == target.y and newPos.z == target.z then
      print("Current Player Pos: X=" .. target.x .. " Y=" .. target.y .. " Z=" .. target.z)
      return true
    end
  end
  return false
end

If you would add checkTargetPosition(newPos) to onWalk and replace the print with a UI widget that should pop up, it should work.

Yikes that means it will be executed every time on step, and UI widget im talking displaying text ON TILE not on UI

Step thing is something you wouldn't be able to avoid. You could send a text message on screen, console or just a UI widget however everything is most likely possible.

You dont understand what i mean im talking about text on tile not on ui widget, console or screen

This must be handled server-side, as the client-side game screen uses mouse positions (x, y) for height and width, not map-like coordinates.

Edit:
Why not handle this on the server side instead of asking if its even possible on the client side?

Server side what you mean exactly must be done?

Using otclientv8. Isnt it like creature based <span>getLocalPlayer</span> how would you do that on x,y,z instead of ataching it from player

it was just an example the argument is a position.

local tilePos = {x = 111, y = 222, z = 7}
local tile = g_map.getTile(tilePos)

local tilePos = {x = 111, y = 222, z = 7}
local tile = g_map.getTile(tilePos)

So whats wrong with this code doesnt display shit

local positions = {
    {pos = {x = 114, y = 184, z = 7}, text = "OTC Redemption"},
    {pos = {x = 120, y = 185, z = 7}, text = "Hello World"},
    {pos = {x = 130, y = 190, z = 7}, text = "Another Message"},
    {pos = {x = 140, y = 195, z = 7}, text = "OTClient Rocks!"}
}

for _, entry in ipairs(positions) do
    local tilePos = entry.pos
    local tile = g_map.getTile(tilePos)
    
    if tile then
        local widget = g_ui.createWidget('Panel')
        widget:setSize({width = 90, height = 22})
        widget:setText(entry.text)
        widget:setFont("terminus-10px")
        widget:setBackgroundColor('#111111cc')
        widget:setMarginBottom(40)
        tile:setWidget(widget)
    else
        print("Tile not found at position:", tilePos.x, tilePos.y, tilePos.z)
    end
end

1. Needs better mapping instead of looping though all values, maybe unique hashing of position?
2. Can be sent from server with a tile, can be sent as a table from server, or this table can already exist in client (like you do now)
3. The idea of onWalk above is bad and wont work
3.1 You need your own callback onTileParsed or w/e, Tiles in OTC are not persistent and so are not tile widgets.

That's all you need, good luck.

you forgot numerous things.
widget:setPosition() and tile and tile:attach
Also, tiles erase the widget once you get away from it, so you need a way to create and reattach that widget

but for me, what you need to accomplish seems easier dealt throught server-side? just loop a text with
Game.sendAnimatedText()

What you mean ''tile and tile:attach''. Game.sendAnimatedText() is limited doing it trough client side i can customize it way more without using that nasty Game.sendAnimatedText()

OTCv8 has built-in support for tile widgets. You don't need source edits to make it work.
Eh, ffs, I didn't even bother to scroll and read more posts...

Yea managed to do it, the shit is hella glitched up it needs floor check and etc weird behaviour my code is just to trash

 

[oen432]

Best way to work with these widgets is to integrate them on the server so they are persistent and easier to manage.
