public class OverlayExample
extends Game

This example shows how to create two different groups of Overlays from an XML file and display them on screen. Notice that the code itself does almost nothing. All of the positioning and styling of the Overlays is handled in the OverlayExample.xml file. The first group contains an OverlayStat with the label "SCORE: ". The second group contains two Overlays: an OverlayString with the text "HEALTH: " and an OverlayBar.

public class OverlayExample extends Game{ PlayField myPlayfield; public static void main(String[] args){ GameLoader game = new GameLoader(); game.setup(new OverlayExample(), new Dimension(640,480), false); game.start(); } public void initResources() { OverlayCreator oc = new OverlayCreator(); //If you use any of the three provided GameFont's then you must set //the game. Eventually the GameFont's should be in Resources so you //should not have to set the game. //Also this does not need to be done if you are using normal fonts. oc.setGame(this); OverlayTracker track = oc.createOverlays("src/vooga/engine/overlay/OverlayExample.xml"); // Playfield can also be replaced with States from the GameState API myPlayfield = new PlayField(); myPlayfield.addGroup(track.getOverlayGroup("ScoreGroup")); myPlayfield.addGroup(track.getOverlayGroup("HealthGroup")); } public void update(long elapsedTime) { myPlayfield.update(elapsedTime); } public void render(Graphics2D g) { myPlayfield.render(g); } }
