Hey guys,

I have a bossfight with a wizard, and it's HP is reduced to 500hp to make it possible at lower levels. His HP bar shows 500/1500hp at the start, can I make the HP bar look right?

Don't use setHealth to change the hitpoints, use setMaxHealth

Where do I go about putting this function? I too, have this problem.

lets say you are going to use skeleton_commander is your boss, before you start the fight, or when you spawn your boss (if you are spawning him with a script) change the MaxHealth Then when you are starting the boss fight you add your skeleton_commander to the boss fight.
When you add him here he will have MaxHealth of 250 and the bar will be full.
hope that helps.

Code: Select all

function setbosshealth()
      skeleton_commander_1.monster:setMaxHealth(250)
end 

Then when you are starting the boss fight you add your skeleton_commander to the boss fight.
When you add him here he will have MaxHealth of 250 and the bar will be full.

Code: Select all

function startBrothersBossFight()                      
   boss_fight_brothers.bossfight:addMonster(skeleton_commander_1.monster)
   boss_fight_brothers.bossfight:activate()
end

hope that helps.

I have this setup correctly, as I can see his hp increase a bit when I step over the trigger that triggers the boss and runs the script. It still shows a lot of missing HP if I adjust the monsters level to 5. It seems like monster level is overriding the maxhp and the bar is still partially empty.

Thanks for all your help!

That's it! Thanks very much man. My wizard is now looking right.
