Draw a HUD Bar for player variables

Dave

this is a function you could use to easily draw a bar for player/enemy health, stamina, mana etc. Very versatile, can be customised easily and features a colour shifting effect with interpolate() as it changes size.

Initially this was a response to another user's request for some help, but the function is actually simple and useful enough that I think it might be valuable here!

function drawBar(x, y, width, height, value, maxValue, colourEmpty, colourFull)
    w = width/maxValue * value
    t = w/width
    col = interpolate(ease_in_out, colourEmpty, colourFull, t)
    box(x, y, w, height, col, false)
return void

// Example usage (using some example variables 'health' and 'maxHealth'):
drawBar(100, 100, 300, 50, health, maxHealth, red, lime)
