Do we have any commands to display the Frames per Second.

I may be old, but at least my memory still ....hmmm

Pressing F11 will bring up the FPS as true as can be with extra HUD's on screen.

Cheers

Jay.

Thanks Jay.

I was actually after the command to call it, in lua. scripting for a diagnostics script I am writing.

I can always add it in later.

there's no command as such but here's the basic idea

+ Code Snippet

local fps = 0
local x = 0
local started = 0
function get_fps_init(e)

end

function get_fps_main(e)

if GetInKey() == "e" then
StartTimer(e)
x = 0
started = 1
else
if started == 1 then
x = x + 1
if GetTimer(e) >= 1000 then
fps = x
started = 0
end
end
end

Prompt(fps)
end

Thanks smallg,

Why didn't I think of that..

Count the amount of times a letter is drawn per second, of course..

Thankyou

i tried it as a function but it doesnt seem to work correctly (using os.time() so it wont crash GG)
i guess the best thing to do is set the fps variable as a global and keep the script running on the map the whole time.

Thanks smallg,

Thanks for the tip about "using os.time() so it wont crash GG.

I would not of thought of that.

Running it all the time is not an issue as I can toggle to on/off anyway.

Its really only a learning thing for the moment in a diagnostics script I am playing with.
