Adding to the Menu

Adding Menus
Surge allows you to have multiple menus/submenus to help you organize your mods. You can do this by going to menu.gsc, updateMenu(), and calling addMenu(parent, name, title). Parent is the menu to add the menu to, name is the ID of the menu (must be unique), and title is the text to display for the title (if dynamic titles are enabled).

Ex:

    

updateMenu()

{

     self addMenu("main", "accountSettings", "Account");

}

Adding Options
Surge allows you to have multiple menus/submenus to help you organize your mods. You can do this by going to menu.gsc, updateMenu(), and calling addOption(parent, label, function, [input], [type], [entity]). Parent is the menu to add the option to, label is the text to display, function is the function to be called when selected, input (optional) is the arguments to pass to the function when called, type (optional) is the type of function it is (see below), and entity (optional) is the entity to call the function on.

Simple

Adding a simple option is easy. All you need is the menu name, the option text, the function, and the input of you need one. Everything else is taken care of.

Ex:

    

updateMenu()

{

     self addOption("main", "God Mode", ::enableGod);

     self addOption("main", "God Mode", ::toggle, "god"); // Optional input

}

Advanced

Do not attempt the following unless you understand programming and what everything below means.

Surge allows you to have complete control over your mods. You can customize every aspect of the call to have it do what ever you need it to.

Input is optional but you can pass up to 5 arguments at once if you choose to. To do this simply create an array and add your desired inputs to the array and pass that in.

Type is optional and defaults to "thread" which runs the function async (along side) the rest. The other value for this is "immediate" which will pause execution, branch off, run the function, and then return to the parent thread.

Entity is optional and defaults to self. This allows you to call functions on any entity accessible in the scope.

Ex:

    

updateMenu()

{

     player = level.players[0];



     inputArray = [];

     inputArray[0] = "arg1";

     inputArray[1] = 2;

     ...

     inputArray[4] = myObj; // last;

     self addOption("main", "Multi Arg Func", ::multiFunc, input, "immediate", player); // This is equivalent to player multiFunc("arg1", 2, ..., myObj);

     self addOption("main", "Multi Arg Func 2", ::multiFunc, input, "thread", player); // This is equivalent to player thread multiFunc("arg1", 2, ..., myObj);

}

Adding Options to the Player Menu

To add an option to the player menu add an option like you normally would except this time the type and entity arguments are required. Type should be "thread" for more info on this) and entitiy must be the client you want to call the function on (read Adding Options - Advanced for more information on these).

Ex:

    

updatePlayerMenu()

{

     player = level.players[0];

     self addOption(player + "Options", "Give God Mode", ::toggle, "god", "thread" player); // This will toggle god mode for this player.

}

Converting Menu Bases

Shark's Menu Base
To use Shark's menu base's option and menu format with Surge, simply copy and paste your old menu options and functions into updateMenu() or updatePlayerMenu() respectively. They will work right along with Surge's regular format with no problems.

Ex:

    

updateMenu()

{

	self addMenu("", "main", "Surge");

		self add_menu("test", "main", "Test Menu");

			// Options in Shark's menu base format

			self add_option("test", "Item", ::test);

			self add_option("test", "Item 1", ::testOne, "arg1");

			self add_option("test", "Item 2", ::testTwo, "arg1", "arg2");

			self add_menu_alt("subMenu", "test");

				self add_option("subMenu", "Sub Item", ::test);

				self add_option("subMenu", "Sub Item 1", ::testOne, "arg1");

				self add_option("subMenu", "Sub Item 2", ::testTwo, "arg1", "arg2");

			//

		self addMenu("main", "self", "Me");

			self addOption("self", "God Mode", ::toggle, "god");

			self addOption("self", "Unlimited Ammo", ::toggle, "ammo");

			self addOption("self", "No Clip", ::toggle, "noclip");

}



updatePlayersMenu()

{

	self.surge["menu"]["players"]["options"] = [];



	foreach(player in level.players)

	{

		name = player getName();

		menu = "player_" + name;

		accessLevelsMenu = name + "_access_levels";



		self addMenu("players", menu, "[" + player getAccessLevelStatus() + "] " + name);

		if(player isHost() == false)

		{

			self addMenu(menu, accessLevelsMenu, "Change Access Level");

				input = [];

				input[0] = player; // This never changes because our first input is always the player

				input[1] = 0; // This changed because it represents different access levels

				self addOption(accessLevelsMenu, "Level 0 (" + level.accessLevelStatuses[0] + ")", ::changePlayerAccess, input);

				input[1] = 1;

				self addOption(accessLevelsMenu, "Level 1 (" + level.accessLevelStatuses[1] + ")", ::changePlayerAccess, input);

				input[1] = 2;

				self addOption(accessLevelsMenu, "Level 2 (" + level.accessLevelStatuses[2] + ")", ::changePlayerAccess, input);

				// Shark's Menu Option Format

				self add_option(accessLevelsMenu, "Option", ::function, input1, input2);

				self add_option(accessLevelsMenu, "Option 1", ::function, input1, input2);

				self add_option(accessLevelsMenu, "Option 2", ::function, input1, input2);

				//

		}

	}



	if(isEmpty(self.surge["menu"]["players"]["options"][self.surge["menu"]["players"]["position"]]))

		self.surge["menu"]["players"]["position"] = 0;

}

Themes and Styling

Adding Colors
Go to main.gsc and find the function init(). Here is where you will define your colors.

Ex:

    

init()

{

     //addColor(colorName, rgb)

     addColor("red", (1, 0, 0));

}

Setting Colors
Go to main.gsc and find the function initSurge(). Here is where you will set your colors. You set them with setColor(type, elem, color). The type must exist in the first level of self.surge and the elem must exist in any level of self.surge[type]["hud"]. Color can be any (r, g, b) object. You can use predefined colors (view above) by calling color("color name").

Ex:

    

initSurge()

{

     setColor("menu", "background", color("red"));

     // or

     setColor("menu", "background", (1, 0, 0));

}

Adding Themes
Go to main.gsc and find the function initSurge(). Here is where you will add your themes. You add them by calling addTheme(name, label, primaryColor, secondaryColor) with the name being the ID of the theme (must be unique), label being the text to display in the theme menu, and primaryColor and secondaryColor being any (r, g, b) object.

Ex:

    

initSurge()

{

     addTheme("cherry", "Cherry", level.red, (1, 1, 1));

}

Turning On/Off Dynamic Menu Titles
Surge allows you to have dynamic menu titles. By default this is disabled to maximize stability but it can be turned on by going to main.gsc, initSurge(), and setting self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = true;

Ex:

    

initSurge()

{

     self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = true; // On

     self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = false; // Off

}

Using the Toggle System

Surge comes with a easy-to-use toggle system that helps you create toggles. To start in main.gsc under initSurge() add an index to the vars array with the ID of your toggle. From there simply add an if statement with the ID of your toggle and inside of that is where the actual toggling goes on. To call it simply call toggle(var, [state]); You can either specify on/off or have it default to the opposite of what it currently is. Take a look at the example to see how to do this.

Ex:

    

initSurge()

{

     self.surge["vars"]["god"] = false; // Defaults to false because we don't have god mode on when we spawn.

}



toggle(var, state)

{

    if(isEmpty(state))

        self.surge["vars"][var] = !self.surge["vars"][var];

    else

        self.surge["vars"][var] = state;

        

    if(self.surge["vars"][var] == true)

        status = "^2Enabled";

    else

        status = "^1Disabled";

    

    // God mode

    if(var == "god")

    {

        self iprintln("God Mode: " + status);

        

        if(self.surge["vars"][var] == true)

            self EnableInvulnerability();

        else

        {

            // Only disable if not in menu; else will be disabled upon menu exit

            if(self.surge["menu"]["active"] == false)

                self DisableInvulnerability();

        }

    }

    // generic example

    else if(var == "varName")

    {            

        self iprintln("Var Name: " + status); // prints out our status

        

        if(self.surge["vars"][var] == true) // toggled on

            self thread turnOnVar();

        else // toggled off

            self thread turnOffVar();

    }

}

    

updateMenu()

{

     self addOption("main", "God Mode", ::toggle, "god");

}

I talked to TheFallen about it and he was able to figure out what the problem was. It was because the strings have a character limit.

Setting Text and Preventing Overflow

When setting text make sure to call setString(player, string) on the element instead of setText(string). This will prevent an overflow and if there are any text elements that do not use this they will cause the overflow fix to break so DO NOT USE setText().

Ex:

    

textElement setString(self, "my new string");

Adding to the Menu

Adding Menus
Surge allows you to have multiple menus/submenus to help you organize your mods. You can do this by going to menu.gsc, updateMenu(), and calling addMenu(parent, name, title). Parent is the menu to add the menu to, name is the ID of the menu (must be unique), and title is the text to display for the title (if dynamic titles are enabled).

Ex:

    

updateMenu()

{

     self addMenu("main", "accountSettings", "Account");

}

Adding Options
Surge allows you to have multiple menus/submenus to help you organize your mods. You can do this by going to menu.gsc, updateMenu(), and calling addOption(parent, label, function, [input], [type], [entity]). Parent is the menu to add the option to, label is the text to display, function is the function to be called when selected, input (optional) is the arguments to pass to the function when called, type (optional) is the type of function it is (see below), and entity (optional) is the entity to call the function on.

Simple

Adding a simple option is easy. All you need is the menu name, the option text, the function, and the input of you need one. Everything else is taken care of.

Ex:

    

updateMenu()

{

     self addOption("main", "God Mode", ::enableGod);

     self addOption("main", "God Mode", ::toggle, "god"); // Optional input

}

Advanced

Do not attempt the following unless you understand programming and what everything below means.

Surge allows you to have complete control over your mods. You can customize every aspect of the call to have it do what ever you need it to.

Input is optional but you can pass up to 5 arguments at once if you choose to. To do this simply create an array and add your desired inputs to the array and pass that in.

Type is optional and defaults to "thread" which runs the function async (along side) the rest. The other value for this is "immediate" which will pause execution, branch off, run the function, and then return to the parent thread.

Entity is optional and defaults to self. This allows you to call functions on any entity accessible in the scope.

Ex:

    

updateMenu()

{

     player = level.players[0];



     inputArray = [];

     inputArray[0] = "arg1";

     inputArray[1] = 2;

     ...

     inputArray[4] = myObj; // last;

     self addOption("main", "Multi Arg Func", ::multiFunc, input, "immediate", player); // This is equivalent to player multiFunc("arg1", 2, ..., myObj);

     self addOption("main", "Multi Arg Func 2", ::multiFunc, input, "thread", player); // This is equivalent to player thread multiFunc("arg1", 2, ..., myObj);

}

Adding Options to the Player Menu

To add an option to the player menu add an option like you normally would except this time the type and entity arguments are required. Type should be "thread" for more info on this) and entitiy must be the client you want to call the function on (read Adding Options - Advanced for more information on these).

Ex:

    

updatePlayerMenu()

{

     player = level.players[0];

     self addOption(player + "Options", "Give God Mode", ::toggle, "god", "thread" player); // This will toggle god mode for this player.

}

Converting Menu Bases

Shark's Menu Base
To use Shark's menu base's option and menu format with Surge, simply copy and paste your old menu options and functions into updateMenu() or updatePlayerMenu() respectively. They will work right along with Surge's regular format with no problems.

Ex:

    

updateMenu()

{

	self addMenu("", "main", "Surge");

		self add_menu("test", "main", "Test Menu");

			// Options in Shark's menu base format

			self add_option("test", "Item", ::test);

			self add_option("test", "Item 1", ::testOne, "arg1");

			self add_option("test", "Item 2", ::testTwo, "arg1", "arg2");

			self add_menu_alt("subMenu", "test");

				self add_option("subMenu", "Sub Item", ::test);

				self add_option("subMenu", "Sub Item 1", ::testOne, "arg1");

				self add_option("subMenu", "Sub Item 2", ::testTwo, "arg1", "arg2");

			//

		self addMenu("main", "self", "Me");

			self addOption("self", "God Mode", ::toggle, "god");

			self addOption("self", "Unlimited Ammo", ::toggle, "ammo");

			self addOption("self", "No Clip", ::toggle, "noclip");

}



updatePlayersMenu()

{

	self.surge["menu"]["players"]["options"] = [];



	foreach(player in level.players)

	{

		name = player getName();

		menu = "player_" + name;

		accessLevelsMenu = name + "_access_levels";



		self addMenu("players", menu, "[" + player getAccessLevelStatus() + "] " + name);

		if(player isHost() == false)

		{

			self addMenu(menu, accessLevelsMenu, "Change Access Level");

				input = [];

				input[0] = player; // This never changes because our first input is always the player

				input[1] = 0; // This changed because it represents different access levels

				self addOption(accessLevelsMenu, "Level 0 (" + level.accessLevelStatuses[0] + ")", ::changePlayerAccess, input);

				input[1] = 1;

				self addOption(accessLevelsMenu, "Level 1 (" + level.accessLevelStatuses[1] + ")", ::changePlayerAccess, input);

				input[1] = 2;

				self addOption(accessLevelsMenu, "Level 2 (" + level.accessLevelStatuses[2] + ")", ::changePlayerAccess, input);

				// Shark's Menu Option Format

				self add_option(accessLevelsMenu, "Option", ::function, input1, input2);

				self add_option(accessLevelsMenu, "Option 1", ::function, input1, input2);

				self add_option(accessLevelsMenu, "Option 2", ::function, input1, input2);

				//

		}

	}



	if(isEmpty(self.surge["menu"]["players"]["options"][self.surge["menu"]["players"]["position"]]))

		self.surge["menu"]["players"]["position"] = 0;

}

Themes and Styling

Adding Colors
Go to main.gsc and find the function init(). Here is where you will define your colors.

Ex:

    

init()

{

     //addColor(colorName, rgb)

     addColor("red", (1, 0, 0));

}

Setting Colors
Go to main.gsc and find the function initSurge(). Here is where you will set your colors. You set them with setColor(type, elem, color). The type must exist in the first level of self.surge and the elem must exist in any level of self.surge[type]["hud"]. Color can be any (r, g, b) object. You can use predefined colors (view above) by calling color("color name").

Ex:

    

initSurge()

{

     setColor("menu", "background", color("red"));

     // or

     setColor("menu", "background", (1, 0, 0));

}

Adding Themes
Go to main.gsc and find the function initSurge(). Here is where you will add your themes. You add them by calling addTheme(name, label, primaryColor, secondaryColor) with the name being the ID of the theme (must be unique), label being the text to display in the theme menu, and primaryColor and secondaryColor being any (r, g, b) object.

Ex:

    

initSurge()

{

     addTheme("cherry", "Cherry", level.red, (1, 1, 1));

}

Turning On/Off Dynamic Menu Titles
Surge allows you to have dynamic menu titles. By default this is disabled to maximize stability but it can be turned on by going to main.gsc, initSurge(), and setting self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = true;

Ex:

    

initSurge()

{

     self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = true; // On

     self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = false; // Off

}

Using the Toggle System

Surge comes with a easy-to-use toggle system that helps you create toggles. To start in main.gsc under initSurge() add an index to the vars array with the ID of your toggle. From there simply add an if statement with the ID of your toggle and inside of that is where the actual toggling goes on. To call it simply call toggle(var, [state]); You can either specify on/off or have it default to the opposite of what it currently is. Take a look at the example to see how to do this.

Ex:

    

initSurge()

{

     self.surge["vars"]["god"] = false; // Defaults to false because we don't have god mode on when we spawn.

}



toggle(var, state)

{

    if(isEmpty(state))

        self.surge["vars"][var] = !self.surge["vars"][var];

    else

        self.surge["vars"][var] = state;

        

    if(self.surge["vars"][var] == true)

        status = "^2Enabled";

    else

Turning On/Off Dynamic Menu Titles
Surge allows you to have dynamic menu titles. By default this is disabled to maximize stability but it can be turned on by going to main.gsc, initSurge(), and setting self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = true;

Ex:
Code:

initSurge()
{
self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = true; // On
self.surge["settings"]["updateTitle"] = false; // Off
}

All it does is toggle changing the menu title. So if you turn it off the title will always be "surge" or what ever you put as the title for the main menu. Otherwise it will be the name of what ever menu you're in. All it does is save strings but now that's not really an issue.

A weird bug I found is that if you have dohearts, or a news bar sometimes the menu deletes the news bar / doheart text and replaces it with whatever you clicked on. Not sure why lol
