Hi guys!
I need help with this idea: how can I print to the screen the distance of an object away from the player (in units, or whatever else) when it's aimed with the crosshair? Something like the distance counter in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. ...Can I achieve this by using raycasting, then grab the raycast value and print it to screen?

I don't believe this is possible without modifying the source code.

Neither with Project Blue (I'm using PB 1.8C Beta 2)? I thought it could be possible through variables and the "printval=X" command..
Thx anyway!

Ah, what you are asking maybe possible with a mod - my comment was just to point out that it is not possible using stock FPSC. I'm not totally sure of the PB commands, but maybe someone else can clarify the situation for you?

Why wouldn't it be possible? Try stuff like this

plrdistfurther=100,plrdistwithin=200,plrnotfacing=0:printval=1
plrdistfurther=200,plrdistwithin=300,plrnotfacing=0:printval=2

etc...
Not tested but it might be workable.

EDIT: Just made and tested the following, it works, apart from the occasional bug.
