Hello.
How to create simple widget?

Settings -> Misc -> Enable local widgets -> Yes.
Add test.lua to Steam\steamapps\common\Zero-K\LuaUI\Widgets .
LuaUi reloaded.

No my widget in Widgets List. :(

Your widget probably has an error then. Check the infolog.txt

You should probably start by installing an already made widget from springfiles to check you have enabled widgets correctly. Also remember to save them as .lua files.

A simple widget example that should show up as "Test" in your widget list.
quote:

function widget:GetInfo()
return {
name = "Test",
desc = "Just a test",
author = "terve886",
date = "Now",
license = "PD", -- should be compatible with Spring
layer = 0,
handler = true, --for adding customCommand into UI, not needed for all widgets so you can probably just remove this line
enabled = true -- loaded by default?
}
end

terve wouldn't that piece have a file directory to a lua file that does the work in the /widgets/test?

No. You only need the lua source file (eg: test.lua) in the Zero-K\LuaUI\widgets folder.
