Alright, let's keep them both, but I don't think I will include your script in its current state.
In general, this is an example of how a script should be written and shared:
https://github.com/mcallegari/qlcplus/pull/846
Also, as far as I can see from your code, it works only on your panel.
Correct me if I'm wrong:
1- it doesn't allow to select where the countdown should start. That's the basic thing I would expect from a script called "Countdown"
2- it exposes an orientation parameter which is then totally ignored when creating the rgb bitmap
3- it can't be scaled to any width/height
4- algo.name = "JoinedForces Timer". Please, QLC+ is not a place for advertising your website or company. And by the way, it is not a timer...
5- same goes for
Code: Select all
Edited for JoinedForces.eu
We did it <3
6- the line
makes no sense at all to me
7- the lines
Code: Select all
map[4][15+x_off] = 64;
map[6][15+x_off] = 64;
map[4][7+x_off] = 64;
map[6][7+x_off] = 64;
make no sense as well, especially if the bitmap is smaller than 15x4. JavaScript won't crash, but it's clearly poor programming
In general, I got the impression that you wanted to do something complicated, without the necessary programming skills to do it.
If I had to do it, I would avoid such complications via javascript and I would improve the "Text" preset, which is handled via C++ and supports fonts, aliasing and everything.
Sorry to turn your excitement down like this, but this is a pure developer review of your work.
