Okay, basically I need any information about hiding the health stats that doesn't involve setting the CharHeight to over 9000. This is because I need to hide the health stats of an invisible drop pod and if I set the CharHeight to over 9000 the actors just rain from the sky.

Basically I have made a drop pod that hits the ground and makes a smoke screen making in look like the actor has come through the ground and I just need a way of hiding the health stats so you can’t see where they are coming from.

Any help would be deeply appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

I really don't see any other way to do this other than charheight.

Please read the post more carefully. I already tried that.

Damn... no funky Lua tricks I could use or anything?

So why would charheight not do? Just curious.

There is a way... But if you do it, you can forget about prices and other numbers in your text.

I don’t know, it's probably got something to do with the drop pod being invisible or something but it's like the doors open as soon as it enters the map and the actors fall to their deaths. [I made this for opposing skirmish forces.]

Edit: I already thought about that Maxim but it seems a bit drastic. o.o

[Sorry for the double post, am sick and i'm not with it today.]

Well, if you care too much about the numbers in your text, then there is no other way.

Okay man. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Sorry, I still don't get why you don't want charheight. :3 I'm 99.9% sure it has nothing to do with any besides the height of the character's health bar.

you could just make the charhight realy high, and use lua to make it gib after a certan point in altidude, delivering the cargo, and creating an mosr version of itself that digs through the ground or whatever.

Step 1. Make invisible craft.
Step 2. Have a lua script (on this craft) that does two things: reads the inventory, storing it into a presetname, and spawns an Actor class actor.
Step 3. Have a lua script on this Actor (as in mother brain Actor) to read the inventory it should have from presetname, add that inventory, and then gib once it hits a low enough altitude.

Spoiler alert: any and all actors (ahuman through acdropship and including Actor and ADoor) can hold things, but without doors it will just be released on gibbing.

I had that problem once, give the drop pod a downward velocity.



I think it has something to do with the drop pod being too still for too long.
