Pictorial HP/SP on Map HUD Please!

[ToriVerly]

I didn't think I should detract from Mea's topic [pictorial HP/SP indicators. Do able?] so I've made my own. I'd like an on-map HUD that shows a row of hearts for HP and another row of something different I haven't decided on for SP. I'd also appreciate a blue bar for Exp if you don't mind. I'd like them to 'peel' back just like Mea's vials but horizontally across the row (right to left).

Thanks!:#

try this? It doesn't really do anything yet but It will work if you call it.

class Bitmap
  def draw_2pic_gradient_bar2(x, y, current, max, background_file, bar_file)
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.hud(background_file)
    self.blt(x, y, bitmap, Rect.new(0, 0, bitmap.width, bitmap.height))
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.hud(bar_file)
    w = Integer(bitmap.width * (current / max.to_f))
    self.blt(x, y, bitmap, Rect.new(0, 0, w, bitmap.height))
  end
end

x = position on x-axis
y = position on y-axis
current = Current amount of bar
max = maximum amount bar can be
background_file = Background fle name in pictures folder
bar_file = file of bar picture

and you could probably change the files using conditional branches. It would be kinda laggy but that's the only way I know how to do it.
