Getting FPS

Is there any way to get the current FPS? I'd like to be able to draw it on screen without having to open the console. I know the Profiler object knows the current FPS, among other things, but I can't figure out how to retrieve that information. Thanks!

Code: [Select]

var mtrTotal:org.flixel.FlxMonitor;
var loc:* = mtrTotal.average();
var fps:String = uint(1000/loc) + " fps";

Hmm... that is giving me an error #1009 when it tries to get mtrTotal.average();

For testing, you can do control-shift-tilde(~) key for windows. Not sure this is what you want.

Code: [Select]

var mtrTotal:org.flixel.FlxMonitor;
mtrTotal = new org.flixel.FlxMonitor(8);
var loc:* = mtrTotal.average();
var fps:String = uint(1000/loc) + " fps";
v2

Now it always produces 0.

Script.getFPS

>_>

BTW, FlxMonitor works if you actually feed him some data. That's why it returns zero.

That was the first thing I tried. Unfortunately, it only returns the max desired framerate (which is always 60).

Okay, is it bad that I'm starting to end sentences with a semi-colon instead of a period? I think I've been working on this way too long.
