Screen that blocks interaction with elements below [solved]

[LRH]

I want to create a screen that blocks interaction with all elements below it, including conversations, menus and the like, until a button or hotspot on that screen is clicked to close it. I can figure out how to create and call a screen, but I'm having trouble finding out how to prevent interaction with all elements below it.

You'll need modal True on your screen.

Code: Select all

screen this_is_a_screen:
    modal True

*too slow, but anyway*
You can set the "modal" parameter to your screen, so player could interact with this screen only.

Code: Select all

screen my_scr:
    modal True
    # all the stuff

Or you could "call" your screen. In this case screen must return something when player would press a button or hotspot.
