Modular Panels

[greenarrow]

Customisable graphical screens

If you already have and old version, just right click on the 'gui panel' folder in addons and click 'svn checkout', then enter the following address:
http://lib-gui-panels.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
If you do not have an old version, you must create the folder 'gui panel' in addons first and then do the above.

This is buggy and incomplete, I already know there are a lot of bugs.

making your own panels do work but there has been some errors with using sliders that values are coming out as a solid 1 if it anything other than 0

Is it the vertical, horizontal or both?
Did you get any console errors?

It was the Verticle sliders and they would not output anything untill it got to the max (1.039?)
then it would stay 1.039 if you moved it any where other than zero.
i will try it again tomoz and if i get any console errors ill let you know

I just installed this along with the stargate dialer screen, and it's not working for me, put them in the right foloders, just like the readme said. hosted up on spacevoyageV3 in spacebuild gamemode.. back screens, and console errors about variables 'w' and a couple of others returning nil values.
i'll get a screenshot of the console spam later. any ideas?

Are you playing multiplayer or single player?

Great job, this is a very welcome addition to the SVN I've already made a few simple Spacebuild-related panels with it. Managed to get Textentry working, but not sure how List works (even after studying the Lua). Is there any documentation on that widget?

I was also wondering about this usermessage thing; I sometimes exceed it's [255 character?] limit and was wondering if there's anything you can do to increase this or cram more data into it? Perhaps use comma- instead of tab-delimiting?

Also, is it possible you could add duplicator support and allow a choice of screen models (for the Textscreen too)?

andy: use few usermessages
