Member Function Documentation

◆ Draw()

void ModBossBar.Draw ( ref BigProgressBarInfo  info,
SpriteBatch  spriteBatch 
)

Implements IBigProgressBar.

◆ GetIconTexture()

virtual Asset< Texture2D > ModBossBar.GetIconTexture ( ref Rectangle?  iconFrame)
virtual

Allows you to specify the icon texture, and optionally the frame it should be displayed on. The frame defaults to the entire texture otherwise.

Parameters
iconFrameThe frame the texture should be displayed on
Returns
The icon texture

◆ ModifyInfo()

virtual ? bool ModBossBar.ModifyInfo ( ref BigProgressBarInfo  info,
ref float  life,
ref float  lifeMax,
ref float  shield,
ref float  shieldMax 
)
virtual

Allows you to handle the logic for when and how this ModBossBar should work. You want to override this if you have a multi-segment NPC. Returns null by default. Failing to return false otherwise will lead to your bar being displayed at wrong times.

Return null to let the basic logic run after this hook is called (index validity check and assigning lifePercent to match the health of the NPC) and then allowing it to be drawn.

Return true to allow this ModBossBar to be drawn.

Return false to prevent this ModBossBar from being drawn so that the game will try to pick a different one.

Parameters
infoContains the index of the NPC the game decided to focus on
lifeThe current life of the boss
lifeMaxThe max (initial) life of the boss
shieldThe current shield of the boss
shieldMaxThe max shield for the boss (may be 0 if the boss has no shield)
Returns
null for "single-segment" NPC logic, true for allowing drawing, false for preventing drawing
