This is the continuation of a small project I showcased in the mega thread
Have a small look on the changes:
Yes, I know, the aesthetics aren’t really that appealing because of small nitpicks like lack of alignment, inconsistent sizing, etc.
Looks is the least of my priority, let’s talk more about features.
Dynamic resizing and elements
Not big of a deal, the message can resize to fit the elements within. Note that the messages were originally designed to be single-line-only, but multiple lines (via \n or <br />) are supported.
The message supports 3 types of elements: text, image, and padding. They can be used in any order and there’s no limit on how many you can use (other than the screen size). The formatting itself looks something like this:
text = {'rbxassetid://10559112982', 8, 'Once you join, you may not leave.'}
With this, you can use custom sprites to represent in-game objects like currency within the messages. But don’t go too overboard, remember that this is a notification system for simple messages and warnings. You’re not supposed to use it to say entire paragraphs.
Weights
Each message can have a customizable weight that dictates its importance and position on the screen. By default error messages have the highest weight and will always appear first.
Customizability
In theory, it should be pretty easy to customize this notification system, whether it be aesthetics, animations, or actions. I’ve already added three types of messages (default, notice, and error) and you can add more. The basic UI design can also be changed, as well as the alignment/order of the messages, the sound they play, the click events, etc.
I might open-source this or turn it into a community resource if my ego gets big enough. What do you guys think? Is there anything else that I should add? Let me know!
