Refresh when HP/SP changes

[Ellie]

I have a window,

class Window_HudBars < Window_Base
  #----------------------------------------
  # Object Initialization
  #----------------------------------------
  def initialize
    super(178, 360, 360, 60)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
    self.z = 200
    self.opacity = 0
    refresh
  end
  
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    self.contents.font.color = normal_color
    self.contents.font.size = 16
    @minhp = $game_party.actors[0].hp
    @maxhp = $game_party.actors[0].maxhp
    @minsp = $game_party.actors[0].sp
    @maxsp = $game_party.actors[0].maxsp
    draw_slant_bar(0, 0, @minhp, @maxhp, width = 144, height = 14, bar_color = Color.new(128, 0, 0, 255), end_color = Color.new(173, 14, 5, 255))
    draw_slant_bar(144, 0, @minsp, @maxsp, width = 144, height = 14, bar_color = Color.new(0, 0, 128, 255), end_color = Color.new(5, 49, 165, 255))
  end
end

I have this on the map in my Hud. I want to make it refresh if the HP or SP of the player changes. Otherwise, the bars will be wrong unless the menu is opened/closed, or unless I change maps.

Is there something I must add to Scene_Map, or to this script, or anything?

Replace it with this one:

class Window_HudBars < Window_Base
  #----------------------------------------
  # Object Initialization
  #----------------------------------------
  def initialize
    super(178, 360, 360, 60)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
    self.z = 200
    self.opacity = 0
    @old_hp = $game_party.actors[0].hp
    @old_sp = $game_party.actors[0].sp
    refresh
  end
  
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    self.contents.font.color = normal_color
    self.contents.font.size = 16
    @minhp = $game_party.actors[0].hp
    @maxhp = $game_party.actors[0].maxhp
    @minsp = $game_party.actors[0].sp
    @maxsp = $game_party.actors[0].maxsp
    draw_slant_bar(0, 0, @minhp, @maxhp, width = 144, height = 14, bar_color = Color.new(128, 0, 0, 255), end_color = Color.new(173, 14, 5, 255))
    draw_slant_bar(144, 0, @minsp, @maxsp, width = 144, height = 14, bar_color = Color.new(0, 0, 128, 255), end_color = Color.new(5, 49, 165, 255))
  end


def update
  super
  if @old_hp != $game_party.actors[0].hp or @old_sp != $game_party.actors[0].sp
    refresh
    @old_hp = $game_party.actors[0].hp
    @old_sp = $game_party.actors[0].sp
  end
end

You only need to update the window.

Thanks, that's brilliant.
