  • PixelRebirth how do you go to create an ingame menu?

    press a button ---> spawn the menu

    press the same button again --> unspawn or destroy the menu

    Like on your game NCD when you press Esc you get the "resume,option,exit"

    and how do you bind a sprite with the menu like the red box on your game, when I use the bind action the sprite is drawn over the txt

    ...Your game have no mercy XD

    Spawn and unspawn sounds right. Did you check out the example linked in the first post?

    If both text and sprite are bound objects controlled by the plugin, they should actually be created with the text on top. Depending on what you're doing you'll have to use events to order things (move to top).

    Hehe I know it's terrible (on purpose)...

  • yeah I checked it out, for some reason when i use the unspawn action it doesn't work...

    The menu disappear but I can still select

    But I will eventually figure it out

    This is a very useful plugin, and well done, thank you for sharing it !!!

    Menus that aren't spawned can still be manipulated if you wish to do so. Try adding the "Is menu spawned"-condition where it applies to prevent this.

    Thank you and you're welcome!

  • hey I have a question, I try to add a image to the menus but for a reason the sprite is always over the text that I bind to the menus, how can I solve that?

    Hey, I did claim the following before:

    If both text and sprite are bound objects controlled by the plugin, they should actually be created with the text on top. Depending on what you're doing you'll have to use events to order things (move to top).

    But now that I checked again that isn't actually the case. I corrected the order and will upload the updated version shortly.

    Thanks again for this!

  • tl:dr - the On/Off item for fullscreen doesn't display despite copy/paste your code. I can't get "items" to display. maybe something about prop distance? everything else works.

    A minor issue has halted me in my tracks. I ended up copying and pasting your code to and didn't have any issues until prop distance. Prop distance is the distance away from where your 2nd menu option (like on/off for fullscreen) displays. It just doesn't work. Everything else works. Your code is copied exactly. My resolution is 320x180 so I tried to adjust and I tried every distance to show the on/off. I even tried "Spritefont.X" and some others after the default didn't work - I set the prop distance to 4,40,400,800 and-4,-40, ect.
