Problem with API Sample #1 - Printable Version

Code:

-- The Mainloop function, gets called all the time by FFXIVMinion:

function mymodule.OnUpdateHandler( Event, ticks )

    if ( mymodule.running and ticks - mymodule.lastticks > 500 ) then

        mymodule.lastticks = ticks

-- if the player is alive, set the current HP value into the new field of our created Window:

         if (Player.alive) then

            d(Player.hp.current)

            hpvalue = tostring(Player.hp.current)

         end

    end        

end

Code:

-- Create a new table for our code:

mymodule= { }

-- Some local variables we use in our module:

mymodule.running = false

mymodule.lastticks = 0

mymodule.hpvalue = "0"



-- Initializing function, we create a new Window for our module that has 1 button and 1 field to display data:

function mymodule.ModuleInit()

    GUI_NewWindow("MyNewWindow",500,50,250,170);

    GUI_NewButton("MyNewWindow","Toggle","MYMODULE.TOGGLE");

    GUI_NewField("MyNewWindow","HP:","hpvalue","HitPoints"); -- In order to display the value of this field, it must be a part of a group ("HitPoints").

    GUI_SizeWindow("MyNewWindow",250,200) -- This line currently required in order to properly resize and display the window. GUI_NewWindow is a little broken right now.

end



-- The function that gets called when the button is pressed:

function mymodule.ToggleRun()

    mymodule.running = not mymodule.running

end



-- The Mainloop function, gets called all the time by FFXIVMinion:

function mymodule.OnUpdateHandler( Event, ticks )

    if ( mymodule.running and ticks - mymodule.lastticks > 500 ) then

        mymodule.lastticks = ticks

-- if the player is alive, set the current HP value into the new field of our created Window:

         if (Player.alive) then

            hpvalue = tonumber(Player.hp.current)

         end

    end        

end



-- Registering the Events

RegisterEventHandler("Gameloop.Update",mymodule.OnUpdateHandler) -- the normal pulse from the gameloop

RegisterEventHandler("MYMODULE.TOGGLE", mymodule.ToggleRun) -- the function that gets called when our button is pressed

RegisterEventHandler("Module.Initalize",mymodule.ModuleInit) -- the initialization function, gets called only once at startup of the game
