How do I use the string in onPaint?

right now I have

g.drawString("Elapsed Time: "  + startTime, 20, 265);                but it isn't working so well lol

I'm still on the fence as far as trying to learn scripting, but if I do, I will definitely make use of this tutorial. Thanks!

How do I use the string in onPaint?

right now I have

g.drawString("Elapsed Time: "  + startTime, 20, 265);                but it isn't working so well lol

Add this method:

public final String formatTime(final long ms){
    long s = ms / 1000, m = s / 60, h = m / 60;
    s %= 60; m %= 60; h %= 24;
    return String.format("%02d:%02d:%02d", h, m, s);
}

Taken from the OP.

 

now in place of startTime, put

formatTime(startTime)

And it should work well.

At the login screen it says; Elapsed Time - 00:00:00 and when it actually starts ingame it just says 12:25:06 and stays like that.

 

 

So I've added

private long startTime;

 

final long runTime = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime;

 

public final String formatTime(final long ms){

   long s = ms / 1000, m = s / 60, h = m / 60;

   s %= 60; m %= 60; h %= 24;

   return String.format("%02d:%02d:%02d", h, m, s);}

 

 

then to onStart I've added

 

startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

 

and onPaint:

 

g.drawString("Elapsed Time: "  + formatTime(startTime), 10, 332);

   s %= 60; m %= 60; h %= 24;

Oh should have been

formatTime(runTime)

Sorry was my bad or something.

Now it just says 12:45:43 from login screen and aswell when it runs

 

EDIT: It works now.

 

Changed -> final long runTime = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime;

To ->                long runTime = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime;

 

and moved it to onPaint

Hey i simply dont understand how to implement this code. What imports do i need for it?

Just input the price manually if you can't figure this out.

How much cpu would you say having something that calculates gp/hr and runtime use? or would it be negligible?

runtime would be near negligible but calculating GP/h depends on whether your getting prices from GE constantly and what other calculation your doing. if its a simple calculation also near negligible

Someone told me paint runs on a separate thread regardless of what it is, and thus it's better if avoided?
