Applying effects on status

About

In previous updates we've created a new export ApplyEffects that's still in development. This small thing can make some element appear as active by animating it to the top for example.

Applying

If you would like to apply effect on some status element (in our example it will be health status), you can use your own handle (in some other resource) or to use our gatherers in client/addon/status.lua. In that example we will be using second option.

Inside /client/addon/status.lua we've added some statement to make health indication that it's low:

local healthEffectAppeared = false -- preventing overcalling the effect 
    Config.Hud.Status['health'].get = function()
        local currentTime = GetGameTimer()
        if currentTime - lastMaxHealthCheck > 5000 then
            cachedMaxHealth = GetEntityMaxHealth(Threads.Players.Data['ped'])
            lastMaxHealthCheck = currentTime
        end
        if cachedMaxHealth < 30 and not healthEffectAppeared then -- statements
            healthEffectAppeared = true
            NUI.ApplyEffectOnInterfaceElement('hud', 'health', true) -- applying effect on hud on status hunger with state true
        elseif cachedMaxHealth >= 30 and healthEffectAppeared then
            healthEffectAppeared = false
            NUI.ApplyEffectOnInterfaceElement('hud', 'health', false) -- applying effect on hud on status hunger with state false
        end
        return (GetEntityHealth(Threads.Players.Data['ped']) - 100) / (cachedMaxHealth - 100) * 100
    end

Export and function

NUI.ApplyEffectOnInterfaceElement(interface, status, state) -- ONLY USE IT IN ZSX_UIV2
-- or
exports['ZSX_UIV2']:ApplyEffect(interface, status, state) -- USE IT OUTSIDE OF ZSX_UIV
