[solved] HUD image element not displaying

[stu]

Could someone please tell me what is wrong with this code

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

minetest.register_on_joinplayer(function(player)
   minetest.after(1, function(player)
      player:hud_add({
         hud_elem_type = "image",
         position = {x=0.5,y=0.5},
         scale = 1,
         text = "hud.png",
         alignment = {x=0,y=0},
      })
   end, player)
end)


No errors but no image is displayed (hud.png definitely does exist)
If I change element type to "text" I see hud.png written in the center of the window
If I change the image name to something non-existent then it reports that a dummy
image was generated but this is not displayed either.

Tested with 0.4.9 and 0.4.10

Code: Select all

scale = 1

The scale parameter is a table {x=xscale, y=yscale}. See if that fixes the error.

Thanks kaeza, looks like I misread the docs, although it seems a bit odd that it needs to be a table if only the x scale is used. nvm, it's working fine now :-)
