Blood gui.

[TheBlackMist]

I wanna make it so that Draw GUI Creates a bloody background and it increases in alpha. Can someone help me with that?

Sure, but why the GUI ?

• it's in the foreground
• it doesn't scale like the rest

Please try to explain a bit more

Because I just like using the gui

make a sprite as big as the view and use this code.

on create write

/// Initilize values
the_alpha = 0;

on your beloved gui draw use:

/// Draw bloody image
var gui_scale = display_get_gui_width() / view_wview;
draw_sprite_ext(spr_blood, -1, 0,0,gui_scale, gui_scale, 0, c_white, the_alpha)

then you just change the_alpha (range[0,1]) to make it more or less visible.

WARNING: You can't (by definition), make a background on the gui,
unless your whole game it's on gui, witch it's wrong in so many levels that if it's the case, you should be executed

Sorry if I didn't explain good enough. joqlepecheur was right I didn't explain good enough. what I meant was.

when another variable number increases for example: kill. then the alpha increases. sorry if I come off as rude!

on the create

/// Initilize values
max_kills = 32;
actual_kills = 0;

On the draw gui

/// Draw bloody image
var gui_scale = display_get_gui_width() / view_wview;
draw_sprite_ext(spr_blood, -1, 0,0,gui_scale, gui_scale, 0, c_white, actual_kills/max_kills)

there, when actual kills reach max kills the image wont be transparent
