ORK 3: Public BETA Available - Page 13

@Malith
Are you using a built-in control or a custom control?

@Dre788
Yeah, will fix that in the next update.

@Acissathar
It'll still use UI boxes and HUDs - basically very similar to the current system, but with more control over what's happening.

@gamingislove I'm using OPSIVE Controller. I switched to Animator Layer method instead of Override controllers. This way I have more control and less bugs.

I'm trying to make a smooth transition between 1 - 0 for animator layer weights.

var m_currentLayerWeight = _playerAnimator.GetLayerWeight(1);
m_currentLayerWeight =Mathf.SmoothDamp(m_currentLayerWeight, IsArmed ? 1 : 0, ref _currentLayerWeightVelocity, animTransSmoothTime);
_playerAnimator.SetLayerWeight(1,m_currentLayerWeight);

How to feed m_currentLayerWeight value to the Animator Weight node? (Issue is I need to feed the value till its 0 or 1)

I didn't follow Makinom, Can we still access variables outside ORK using ORKFramework namespace?

@gamingislove I'm trying to adjust to the new ui system. Here's a some questions:
Classic Ork had the option to scale an UI box based on content, is this still possible with the new system?
It was also possible to easily set open/close animations affecting element positions and transparency, will this also be reimplemented in the future?
Could it be possible to get all the menu elements already setup with default graphics so that it would be easier for the user to just customize them instead of creating them from scratch? (maybe through the extension manager)

@Vlastan
Using the Unity UI module all of this is now handled by, well, the Unity UI setup/components. E.g. Content Size Fitter and the various layout components.
Open/close behaviours are handled via animations - the UI Box and HUD components also have an Animation Offset property to easily handle move in/out via animations. Fade in/out is done via the Alpha property of a Canvas Group component.

You can create ready to use stuff via the scene hierarchy context menu, in most cases it's just creating it via the context menu and making a prefab out of it.
I'll provide some ready to use prefabs to download in the future, though that'll be later around official release when all of the things are finalized :)

@Dre788
Is this during play or during editing the UI?
I think this is mainly due to Unity handling stuff ... e.g. when creating a canvas in the scene and editing a UI prefab can have different canvas setups and thus display differently. I'd recommend to set up Unity's UI Environment in the project settings to a scene with a canvas set up to your needs.

@Dre788
I'll check it out.
A UI box (or HUD) is resetting it to it's initial position, might be that this clashes with changed canvas stuff.

Edit: Hm, not really running into this.
I've set up a Screen Space - Camera canvas with a Canvas Scaler and the camera being a child of the canvas, created a prefab out of it and use that for a UI layer.

@Dre788
Oh, yeah - totally forgot about that Screen Space Camera option in the UI system settings :D
With that setup it also happens in my test project. I'll look into it and hopefully fix it in the next update.

@gamingislove
That's good to know.

The Ork HUD Value Bar doesn't seem to be functioning when my combatants take damage. I didn't do anything special to change the default settings. So I'm wondering if this could be a bug.

Edit: For some strange reason the flying text aren't displaying. I noticed if I slow down the animation machine (for example, change the text position, enable move and make it wait 25 seconds) I can see it spawn in the flying text layer but they are invisible on screen during play. I noticed if I disable/enable the flying text object during the 25 second wait period they show up correctly.

Edit #2: If you use Combatant Settings Allow Non-Player and use Menu List to show other menu screens that also have Allow Non-Player, those menu screens won't display information correctly. For example, if I call that menu during battle and used it on a enemy, it won't show the information of the selected enemy but the player. If I call these menus directly instead of using Menu List, the information displays correctly. Menu List may not be aware of the Allow Non-Player setting in the menus it calls.

Im having trouble with the content of a Shop. I want that the buttons which contains the Name of the item has the info how offen i Have this item. Its working but there is a mistake because when i buy one item every items gets there value of Buy. Do i miss something?
