Hey there! I wanted to know how can I make a text box show up? Like when you hit quit and the game asks for confirmation.
I wanted a box to pop up to give a tip. Like a hint system would.
And how can I make that box have a yes/no option?
How can I make a text box appear?

Re: How can I make a text box appear?
You need to make a screen for the textbox.
It could be something like this.
Code: Select all
screen hint(Qtext):
frame:
padding (10,10)
align (0.5, 0.5)
vbox:
text Qtext
hbox:
xalign 0.5
textbutton "Yes" action Jump ("Somewhere")
textbutton "No" action Jump ("SomewhereElse")
You can then show the textbox with
show screen hint("Some hint-text you want")
The textbox will now show up with the text you have entered and the options Yes and No.
You close the box with
hide screen hint
---
Read up on screens, frame, vbox and hbox to make a better looking box.
