Hello, i redesigning the controlbar but have a little problem with powerbar.
My power bar only show 3 power states: Good energy with a green bar, critical energy with a yellou bar and low energy with a red bar, the problem is if you have 80 unused energy points it appears the same green bar if you have only unused 20 points, my code is:

ControlBar.wnd:PowerWindow:
SCREENRECT = UPPERLEFT: 640 179,
                        BOTTOMRIGHT: 651 426,
                        CREATIONRESOLUTION: 800 600;

Not exactly sure what is your problem, but Im wondering have you managed to get the power indication to travel vertically (not just have the bar vertical).

why not just make the horizontal bar really tall and thin, it would look verticle. then you can just gauge how much power you got by what color it is. I judge power that way anyways. if its green anything i build wont make me loose power, and if it goes yellow, just build some more powerplants. and if you hover your cursor over it, it tells you the exact power amount.

ok, my problem: (sry but i spanish)

in not modded generals:
- u have 40 not used power points and 5 used power points, the green bar it appears: ----------------------------------------
- u have 20 not used power points and 10 used power points and the green bar it appears: -----------

in my vertical power bar, the green bar it appears the same in all the cases (------------------------) if you have 10, 20, 40 or 80 unused power points, the yellou bar and the red bar word good but the problem is with the greenbar

Ummmm... maybe the there is no problem... what I mean is maybe that's just how the engine goes. And none of us have noticed. hehe
