Current scene as pause menu background

[fsc]

I forgot about this, this has been asked somewhere but I can't find it.

Simply put, how to make pause menu like this? Thanks.

I did that like this
Tell your game to use the right click to show this menu

Code: Select all

    $ _game_menu_screen = "game_menu"

Screen code for the menu

Code: Select all

##########################
##Pause menu
screen game_menu:

    tag menu
  
    imagemap:
        
        auto "assets/UI/pause_%s.png"

        
        hotspot (575,130,133,53) action Return()
        hotspot (555,198,160,60) action ShowMenu("save")
        hotspot (575,265,125,55) action ShowMenu("load")
        hotspot (535,342,209,50) action ShowMenu("text_history")
        hotspot (565,410,152,59) action ShowMenu("preferences")
        hotspot (540,485,190,51) action MainMenu()

It has to be the size of your screen and you need a transparent background.
Hope this helps.

I thought about that too, it's not what I expected. :s
Let me rephrase and reillustrate the example.



It's adaptive to active scene, and dynamic displayables are still playing over it, as if pause menu is just another layer.

Open your options.rpy and look for a line similar to this:

Code: Select all

gm_root = "#dcebff", 

and change it to

Code: Select all

gm_root = Null(),

Your game menu background should become transparent.
