UI Flicker when updating display element
3LGStevo posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
I've recently created a new HUD overlay for my altis life server, on the UI, there is a picture that displays an icon of a mail item and when the user receives a new message, the icon changes to a picture alerting them that they have a new message. When this changeover occurs, my whole UI overlay flickers off and then back on again. This only appears to do it for this icon, and one other icon when they're being changed. The rsc display is not removed at any point while these icons are updated in the code, but for the first swap-over, the flicker occurs. After the first swap-over, the interface seems happy enough to swap them over without flashing/flickering. There's not much point in me posting the code here as A: it's far too long, and B: I've been over it several times. The issue isn't consistent from a repeatable point of view... but is, since it only seems to occur on the first change over of each icon. What I need to know is; 1. Are there any known issues with amending RSC layer pictures that could cause this? 2. Should all files associated with the Rsc Layer be preprocessed? What I've already tried; 1. Loading both images required before the interface is fully utilised - doesn't fix the problem 2. Amended the images manually through debug console - still flashes the UI for the first change over, then continues as expected 3. Removing the UI and re-creating the UI once the images have been swapped over - the next swap-over doesn't flicker. 4. All RscText values on the HUD can be changed / amended with no flickering... the issue solely happens with amending RscPicture's text.
