Technical Information

WeaponDisplay.java Java class contains all necessary components for the Weapons menu.

Texts of description and picture directories are stored in the paragraphs array.

Label introLabel = new Label("Below are the available weapons in the game:", skin);
        table.add(introLabel).colspan(2).pad(10).row();

        String[] animalDescriptions = {
                "Shotgun - 30 dmg, 5 range, 5 rounds per second, 20 rounds per magazine",
                "Sword - 100 dmg, 0 range, 10 fire rate, no need to reload",
        };

        String[] animalImagePaths = {
                "images/Weapons/Centered/Shotgun4_center.png",
                "images/Weapons/Centered/Sword1_center.png",
        };

Components like texts and buttons of the menu are displayed in tables, which makes everything aligned and have the same structure with every other screens. A for loop is used to add every descriptions and pictures into the table:

Table table = new Table();
for (int i = 0; i < animalDescriptions.length; i++) {
            Image animalImage = new Image(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal(animalImagePaths[i])));
            Label animalLabel = new Label(animalDescriptions[i], skin);

            table.add(animalImage).size(100, 100).pad(10);
            table.add(animalLabel).pad(10).left().row();
        }
        Label bottomLabel = new Label("For melee weapons, press Space to use - Use arrow keys for ranged weapons.", skin);
        table.add(bottomLabel).colspan(2).pad(10).row();

return table;
