Hide % when creating a stat chart

[NickyDicky]

Hiya.

Was wondering, is it possible to hide/not display the percentages when using *stat_chart?

Say, I have a variable with a maximum above a hundred and I want to display its value on the pretty red stat bar. These steps are easy enough: I divide the current value by the maximum to get the %, create the stat bar and display the variable value through ${}.

The only problem is, the amount of % will also be shown - which is something I don’t want. Can I get rid of them somehow?

Thanks in advance for the responses.

Run two separate variables and have one of them be the fake variable, which is capped at 100, and the other the real variable, which is hidden.

How does that help me with hiding percentages though?

I want the end result to be something like Strength (${value}) on the stat bar. But using *stat_chart always results in Strength (${value}): %amount, which looks very clunky.

Or is there something I am missing?

Do you mean this? this will display a variable as a value instead of a percentage

Should have probably linked an image from the start haha

I want something like this: keep the red bar, but without the display of percentages.

I don’t think it’s possible, but figured I’d ask anyway, just in case.

No, it’s possible if you do it manually instead of using a variable/calculation.

1. You need to open a choicescript game and go to the stat screen

2. Use inspect element to edit out the % sign and make the stat have whatever text you want for it’s look

3. Take a screenshot after the alterations

4. Do this several times until you have every single different strength level you require for your game

5. Put the cropped screenshots/images in the images folder so they can be used in your game (i recommend using the dashingdon website for this part)

This way you keep the pretty red bar

I recommend naming the images Strength_5 and Strength_10 etc…

Well, this is certainly a way to do it

Thank you! Didn’t even think about using images.
