Several game titles which have public APIs allow for real-time game data to be displayed. Additionally you can monitor various aspects of your PC system hardware.
To add these data points to your shard, first insert either a Text Label or a Gauge.
These elements will have an Add Variable or Select Variable dropdown from the inspector panel on the right which will bring up a list of game-specific datapoints.
With Labels you can add one or a long list of hardware monitoring or game datapoints from the submenus of each whereas with gauges you can set which datapoint the needle is following.
Advanced Formatting
Within text labels you can add formatting to number and string variables e.g to round or perform math.
add | {{variable.value | add: 2}} |
subtract | {{variable.value | subtract: 2}} |
multiply | {{variable.value | multiply: 2}} |
divide | {{variable.value | divide: 2}} |
decimal | {{variable.value | decimal: 2}} <- 2 decimal places |
currency | {{variable.value | currency: 'USD'}} |
lowercase | {{variable.value | lowercase }} |
uppercase | {{variable.value | uppercase }} |
capitalize | {{ variable.value | capitalize }} |
plural | {{ variable.value | plural: "singular" : "plural" }} |
truncate | {{ variable.value | truncate: 20 }} |
Example of a variable without formatting applied:
{{forza-motorsport.AngularVelocityX.value}}
Example of a variable with formatting applied:
{{forza-motorsport.AngularVelocityX.value | multiply: 100 | decimal: 2}}
