Missing Player Information Panel

[AmadanNaBriona]

In my game, I have set up the .tpl file according to the tutorials, and I have the basic layout displaying after I start the game, including cards dealt to each player.

However, I am missing the player information panel that goes with every game. I cannot figure out what I inadvertently removed, or did not include, in either my tpl file or my view.php file.

Still have not figured this out. I have looked at several games to see how it's done. So using a couple of other examples, I put this in the <script> section at the bottom of my .tpl file:

Code: Select all

var jstpl_player_panel = '\
  <div class="player_info">\
      <p>FOO</p>\
  </div>';

(Note: Just a stub, all I want is to see the word "FOO" just to verify something is being inserted...)

In my JS file, in the setup function:

Code: Select all

            // Setting up player boards
            for( var player_id in gamedatas.players )
            {
                dojo.place(this.format_block('jstpl_player_panel', {'player_id':player_id}), $('player_board_' + player_id));
                console.log("placing block for " + player_id);
            }

It doesn't work - I see the log statement output, but nothing appears on my board. What element am I missing?

I also went through the hearts tutorial, and I swear I cannot find the code anywhere that inserts this:

I'm sure I'm missing something very basic, but thanks for any help.

Okay, so I'm kind of an idiot. Immediately after posting the above, I found that the player board is indeed appearing, but in the far lower right of my screen:

So, I'm still at a loss as to where I went wrong in my css or tpl file. How do I get it to be placed up in the right margin, where it should be?

The player panels are created by the framework, but apparently this is not the case in your project.
I suggest to remove your code and then add the elements piece by piece (or start a new project).

Look in the lower right of the last image I posted. Turns out the player panels are being created. I am just not sure why they're being stuck down in the lower right corner on top of the BGA footer info.

I didn't see this second post when writing my reply, sorry. Nevertheless, in a game I had started I could not see anything at the bottom (I just tried again).

I probably have found the solution:

Change the "<div>" in line 53 of your TPL file to "</div>" (closing of div id "psouth".

This is really late, but I just resumed working on this project, and only now saw your reply from back then. You're absolutely correct. Very belated thanks!

You are welcome. Glad that I could help!
