Re: New Speed Meter

upload the dhudmessage.inc or add a link to it in the description.

Re: New Speed Meter

You use the cvar pointer incorrectly. You need to use get_pcvar_num(showspeed).
There is no reason to have an array for the players since every cell is the same value.
The prefix "sz" is traditionally used for strings as it refers to zero-terminated strings.
vSpeed is not the player's velocity, and is not relevant as it is the players horizontal speed only (vSpeed and Speed are identical on flat surfaces).

Re: New Speed Meter

So you just changed it to "dhudmsg's" and fucked up the code?

Good job.

Your 1 is true, and I must have overlooked that in the other plugin.

However, your 4 is false because the horizontal speed does matter (though the label "velocity" can be misleading).
It is designed to show the complete velocity as well as horizontal velocity.

As for the OP, all you did was:
- change set_hudmessage() -> set_dhudmessage() and ShowSyncHudMsg() -> show_dhudmessage().
- removed the color cvar (why remove a customizable feature?)
- changed around some of the variable names.

This does not make a valid reason for a new plugin.
Even if it did, you would have only needed to change the hudmessage functions and nothing else.
If you have any hopes in getting this approved, you need to fix the cvar problem, put back the color cvar, and put all the variable names back since that was a pointless change in the first place.

Re: New Speed Meter

wanna test it right now
