Thx for the plugin. But you should change your path (delete plugin before .cs) or change the name in your code.

Hi,

var portrait = player.PortraitUiElement.Rectangle;  

is never used.

var PointZero = Hud.Window.CreateWorldCoordinate((float)0, (float)0, (float)0);  

is never used.

0f //does the same as (float)0  

do you want to paint your own BTTag ??
in case not, add

if (player.IsMe) continue;  

foreach (var player in Hud.Game.Players.OrderBy(p => p.Index))  

what is the point in ordering by index, if you switch your coordinates per index later....
is there a difference to

foreach (var player in Hud.Game.Players)  

-----------------------------

your code is quite long...
use arrays to shorten it.

note: not tested yet !!!

private float[,,] bannerCoords = new float[5,4,3] { 
    //player_index = 0 {x,y,z} //player_index = 1 {x,y,z} ... 
    { {381.154f, 551.850f, 33.3f}, {397.500f, 568.030f, 31.5f}, {403.000f, 539.500f, 37.3f}, {413.500f, 548.450f, 28.9f} },    //act 1 
    { {318.500f, 263.600f, 4.5f }, {300.000f, 285.500f, 6.5f }, {319.000f, 304.900f, 7.6f }, {338.500f, 285.300f, 7.0f } },    //act 2 
    { {382.500f, 411.900f, 10.2f}, {398.500f, 428.500f, 9.2f }, {408.500f, 405.800f, 19.4f}, {414.500f, 408.100f, 6.4f } },    //act 3 
    { {382.500f, 411.900f, 10.2f}, {398.500f, 428.500f, 9.2f }, {408.500f, 405.800f, 19.4f}, {414.500f, 408.100f, 6.4f } }, //act 4 
    { {571.000f, 756.600f, 6.1f }, {550.000f, 779.000f, 7.4f }, {551.500f, 739.000f, 9.5f }, {530.000f, 759.000f, 9.1f } } //act 5 
};  

foreach (var player in Hud.Game.Players.OrderBy(p => p.Index)) 
{ 
    if (player == null) continue; 
 
    var BTTag = player.BattleTagAbovePortrait; 
    var CurrentAct = Hud.Game.Me.SnoArea.Act; 
    var pIndex = player.Index; 
 
    var BannerPos = Hud.Window.CreateWorldCoordinate(bannerCoords[CurrentAct-1,pIndex,0],bannerCoords[CurrentAct-1,pIndex,1],bannerCoords[CurrentAct-1,pIndex,2]); 
 
    var BattleTagAboveBanner = Hud.Game.Actors.Where(x => x.SnoActor.Sno == 375094);   
    foreach (var actor in BattleTagAboveBanner.Take(1))   
    { 
        BattleTagAboveBannerDecorator.Paint(layer, actor, BannerPos, BTTag); 
    } 
}  

you can also remove act 4 line from array:

var Act_index = (Hud.Game.Me.SnoArea.Act == 4 ? 2 : (Hud.Game.Me.SnoArea.Act == 5 ? 3 : Hud.Game.Me.SnoArea.Act - 1 )); 
var BannerPos = Hud.Window.CreateWorldCoordinate(bannerCoords[Act_index,pIndex,0],bannerCoords[Act_index,pIndex,1],bannerCoords[Act_index,pIndex,2]);

BUT WHY?

Will I see that VERY USEFUL & ENCOURAGING GIF each time I read the thread ?
This has been requested and I need to learn, that's why.

0f //does the same as (float)0  

Thanks, now I know.

if (player.IsMe) continue;  

Yes I wasn't sure what to do but less screen pollution is better and I think the main goal of the plugin is to quickly teleport to another player so having your own screen name displayed is nonsense.

your code is quite long...
use arrays to shorten it.

I find it more readable like that, does it make a difference in terms of performance?

Thanks a lot for the advice :-)

not that much,
but you can move getting coordinates to a method.

var BannerPos = getTownBannerCoordinates(Hud.Game.Me.SnoArea.Act, player.Index);  

private IWorldCoordinate getTownBannerCoordinates (int CurrentAct, int pIndex) 
{ 
    if (CurrentAct == 1) 
    { 
        if (pIndex == 0) 
            return Hud.Window.CreateWorldCoordinate(381.154f, 551.850f, 33.3f); // Top of North East Banner  Act 1     
 
        else if (pIndex == 1) 
            return Hud.Window.CreateWorldCoordinate(397.500f, 568.030f, 31.5f); // Top of South East Banner  Act 1 
 
        else if (pIndex == 2) 
            return Hud.Window.CreateWorldCoordinate(403.000f, 539.500f, 37.3f);   // Top of North West Banner  Act 1 
 
        else if (pIndex == 3) 
            return Hud.Window.CreateWorldCoordinate(413.500f, 548.450f, 28.9f);   // Top of South West Banner  Act 1 
    } 
....

Because he can.

Any way I can have the labels gone when the banners aren't on screen?

i find it not so much editable...
you just had to edit at 16 locations, not just at 1...

Indeed I used replace in notepad++ to replace the 16 lines in 2 seconds but you are right, I know your way is better in terms of maintenance / editing...

... wrong thread

You make this in n++ Oô
Hat's off dude! There is some better tool around to boost your productivity ;p
Intellisense for plugins

Refactoring on the way ; )
