Oh, right, you want to do it through an overlay.

I'd really rather not touch those since I have no idea how the various types of offsets interact...

What?

You mean ui process event? Or input process?

And why I must use status bar, if there are render overlay?
Or just even create dumy actor with crosshair spite, which float around player.

The term I think is "aiming dead zone".

It can be done, but it does mess with player movement prediction so it might not look good in multiplayer.


First, you need to study [url=https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/blob/c8eefd84fa056f3d52e8186289357399c169ed60/wadsrc/static/zscript/shared/player.txt#L834]MovePlayer()[/url] and [url=https://github.com/coelckers/gzdoom/blob/c8eefd84fa056f3d52e8186289357399c169ed60/wadsrc/static/zscript/shared/player.txt#L923]CheckPitch()[/url] to figure out what you need to replace.

(basically you need to modify them so they only turn the player after a certain threshold, but still receive input for turning)

Then you need to replace the player pawn to add variables storing the position of the cursor.

Then you need to replace the status bar, and have the crosshair be drawn where the cursor should be. (I don't know how to draw the crosshair; worst case senario you can just draw your own cursor image)

I found video, but as I said, its on acs.

How make crosshair move in some area on screen, if player move mouse, before actualy turn player?

If I badly explained what I want, heres a picture.

Crosshair should be inside red circle(maybe not so large) all time, and must move freely inside this circle. Crosshair still constrolled by mouse/joystick "mushroom"/touchpad/etc.
Optionaly, change direction of shoot bullets, so they fly in direction where crosshair aim, but I think I can found workaround for this.

But player must and should turn only if crosshair try to go out of bound of this red circle. Like, if crosshair tries to go beyond the most upper borders of circle - player camera turns up, most left border - turn left, down border - turn down, south-west border - turn in south-west direction, etc.

I remember I see something like this before, but it was made using acs script, and I need zscript version.
