Custom Altimeter!

[ShadowD BOB]

Hey, i was wondering is it poss to put an altimeter onto a player, like the one on a heli.  If this is poss can u change the altimeter so that it shows text in the middle of the screen showing your altitude?

Any help, would be appreciated!

you can script it like this, but it will annoy you with the sound

#loop
_alt = getpos player select 2
Hint format ["Altitude: %1",_alt]
~0.1
?getpos player select 2 > 1 : goto "loop"
exit

or you could use titletext instead but it flickers because of the loop

#loop
_alt = getpos player select 2
Titletext [Format ["Altitude %1", _alt],"Plain Down",0]
~0.1
?getpos player select 2 > 1 : goto "loop"
exit

Thx alot Black_Feather worked a treat, your right the sound is annoying lol, but the text one works great. I got round the flickering (well its not as bad now) by reducing the loop time from 0.1 to 0.02.

Thx Again.
