I need a HUD that's like this:

--------------------------------------
' (Name of the first actor in party)
' (current hp) / (max hp)
' (current sp) / (max sp)
' (currency name) (amount)
'--------------------------------------

Nothing flashy, just this.

It should be in the lower right corner, using the windowskin usd by the game.
Thank you very much.

I tried using some other huds but they are too complicated for what I need.

Here, paste this code in a new tab over the "Main":
Code: 
class Window_HUD < Window_Base
  def initialize
    super(468,368,176,112)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(140,80)
    self.contents.font.size = 20
    self.back_opacity = 160
    refresh
  end
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    @actor = $game_party.actors[0]
    self.contents.draw_text(4,0,132,20,@actor.name.to_s,1)
    draw_actor_hp(@actor,4,16)
    draw_actor_sp(@actor,4,36)
    self.contents.draw_text(4,60,132,20,$game_party.gold.to_s,2)
    self.contents.draw_text(4,60,132,20,$data_system.words.gold + ":")
  end
end
class Scene_Map
  alias hud_main main
  alias hud_update update
  def main
    @hud = Window_HUD.new
    hud_main
    @hud.dispose
  end
  def update
    @hud.refresh
    hud_update
  end
end

That could cause lag though because you are updating every frame.

It would be a little better if you didn't ever call refresh every frame. That should reserved for update. Instead, in the update method, you should check flags. If they are different, then call the refresh method. In the refresh method, save your flags. That's it.

Thank you very much, both of you.
I'm not going to have a lag problem, the hud is actually for a menu-map.

One more thing, please. Hoe could I turn the HUD on or off? I tried to mimic the way Blizzard did it in his tons of addons, but object oriented languages aren't my best point...

@SS: I'm well aware of what you've said. I just dont think that drawing that little data will really have some effect on the FPS. Sure, it's really good when it comes to more complex content (gradient bars and stuff), but with something like this I felt I could just let it go :]
@Ravenith: I could make it so the HUD hides/shows after a certain button is pressed, or a switch is ON/OFF. Which one would you prefer? I'd recommend the switch, as it comes handy in the cutscenes.

end

  alias hud_update update
  def main
    @hud = Window_HUD.new
    hud_main
    @hud.dispose
  end
  def update
    @hud.refresh
    if $game_switches[1] and @hud.x > 468
      @hud.x -= 11
      @hud.y -= 7
    end
    if $game_switches[1] == false and @hud.x < 640
      @hud.x += 11
      @hud.y += 7
    end
    hud_update
  end
end
Toggle Switch 1 to show/hide the window : )

p.s. Is this for the DEA? It looks promissing ; )

Mind if I ask something in here?
*asks question before anyone could answer, lol*

Can I have that HUD but showing all four members, and is it possible have it show up during certain points in the game? (something to open and disable it basically)
Thanks.
P.S: Sorry, I didn't want to make an extra thread since this is somewhat what I'm looking for.

For all party members I have something like this:
Code: 
class Window_HUD < Window_Base
  attr_reader :origin
  attr_reader :hide
  def initialize(act=0)
    @act = act
    @hide = -160 + @act*240
    @origin = @act*160
    super(@act*160,0,160,96)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(128,64)
    self.contents.font.size = 20
    self.back_opacity = 160
    if $game_switches[1] == false
      self.x = @hide
      self.y = -128
    end
    @hp = 0
    @sp = 0
    @maxhp = 0
    @maxsp = 0
    @name = ""
    refresh
  end
  def refresh
    @actor = $game_party.actors[@act]
    return unless (@hp != @actor.hp or @sp != @actor.sp or @maxhp != @actor.maxhp or @maxsp !=@actor.maxsp or @name != @actor.name)
    self.contents.clear
    self.contents.font.bold = true
    self.contents.fill_rect(0,38,128,4,Color.new(224,224,224))
    self.contents.fill_rect(1,39,126,2,Color.new(32,32,32))
    self.contents.fill_rect(0,60,128,4,Color.new(224,224,224))
    self.contents.fill_rect(1,61,126,2,Color.new(32,32,32))
    life = 126 * @actor.hp / @actor.maxhp
    self.contents.fill_rect(1,39,life,2,Color.new(255,128,128))
    mana = 126 * @actor.sp / @actor.maxsp
    self.contents.fill_rect(1,61,mana,2,Color.new(128,128,255))
    self.contents.font.color = Color.new(0,0,0)
    self.contents.draw_text(1,1,128,20,@actor.name.to_s,1)

    self.contents.draw_text(0,44,128,20,$data_system.words.sp)
    self.contents.font.color = Color.new(255,255,255)

    @sp = @actor.sp
    @maxhp = @actor.maxhp
    @maxsp =@actor.maxsp
    @name = @actor.name
  end
end
class Scene_Map
  alias hud_main main
  alias hud_update update
  def main
    @huds = []
    for i in 0..$game_party.actors.size-1
      @huds << Window_HUD.new(i)
    end
    hud_main
    @huds.each{ |h| h.dispose}
  end
  def update
    @huds.each{ |h| h.refresh}
    if $game_switches[1] and @huds[0].x < 0
      @huds.each{ |h|
        h.x += (h.origin-h.hide)/16
        h.y += 8}
    end
    if $game_switches[1] == false and @huds[0].x >= -160
      @huds.each{ |h|
        h.x -= (h.origin-h.hide)/16
        h.y -= 8}
      end
    hud_update
  end
end

Shows/hides with switch #1.
Good enough?

Thanks Raziel....wait, Raziel?....RAZIEL!!! (lol, I was having a problem with downloading something...go to your HP Bar thread)

Err...sorry about that...lol

EDIT: It works pretty well so far, but is it possible to replace the sprites with the battler graphics? (or will this slow it down...I hope not, lol)

Click to expand...

I would prefer having the class displayed under the actor name.
And yes, I would like to keep it single player.
Like someone else already said, sorry from detracting from your request, Ravenith.

Dude, it looks great. Thanks a lot.
Now people have a bunch of options of what to choose from.

Plus good job on the spacing. i put "LONGESTCLASSICOULDTHINKOF" as the class, lol, and your script still tried to centralize.

Good job.
Btw: I'm assuming this line:
self.contents.draw_text(5,21,132,20,@actor.class_name.to_s,1)
self.contents.font.color = system_color


controls what color the class comes out in?
How would I change that? with the RBY Code? where would i put that.

Thanks again for taking up my request.
