This is very cool! I added a bunch of new menus and customization options involving colors and backgrounds! But I have one question: How do I make so that the keyboard is disabled and the mouse enabled?

There is a variable for this. It's in the big initiation script, with all the variables and the fancy commentary.

I get an error when trying to use an input that you mentioned in a previous post with a few changes:
sc_menu_add_button("Players","sc_show_keygrab('Press a key','Players','global.numofplayers')",0,"","","key_down_str1");

Error:
___________________________________________
ERROR in
action number 1
of Step Event
for object obj_menu:

In script sc_menu_process:
In script sc_menu_input:
Error in code at line 11:
variable_local_set(b_variable[b_button, b_menu],global.key_str[keyboard_lastkey])
^
at position 65: Unknown variable key_str or array index out of bounds


Am I doing something wrong or is it an error with the script?

btw im using gm8

Oh yeah sorry just found the variable before you told me. Thanks anyways!

And also I wanted to ask you, will there ever be a tutorial for making objects do the same actions as the text?

You mean making the buttons be objects instead of just variables and text? There are menus that do this, but I don't like that method.

Oh sorry I meant sprites... Is that the method you don't like?

[lordhazil]

i want to use it for level selecting
how can i make it so i have 5 options in one line, and only then start a new line?

[Mordi]

You'll have to figure this one out yourself, hazil.

Oh. Nah, sprites are good. If you want to use sprites you'll have to look in the draw-script. Where I draw the button-variables text and whatnot.

Oh well thanks for giving me the tip!

This looks insanely cool. Gonna give it a go and try a little customization.

[icicle.flame]

this looks great! Unfortunately I already went through my whole process of making an animated menu (using arrays) and easier to understand for me. In the .txt file you should add what the script do and their arguments instead of just having it all in the scripts.

Glad to see your still supporting this three years later lol,
~IF~

P.S. my menu script is the same as my inventory... ?

[goldage5]

Just want to say that I'm once again using your scripts as a basis to my main menu in my current project. Everytime I look to make a menu, the first thing I do is download a copy of your menu scripts. They're perfect for a nice and organized menu. They provide easy navigation, smooth transactions, and beautiful presentation. Right now I'm trying to implement a system for adding text boxes in the menu scripts. That way I can make a login screen using these scripts.


[EDIT]
I've done it. Had to use seperate objects for the text boxes though. Here's a screenshot:

Everything Mordi does is Awesome!

[rumpleduskin1972]

I realize this is an old topic but I really like this menu for what i'm working on. Ive been through the code trying to figure out how I could position the start button in one spot without it scrolling in. I cant seem to do it, very new to gml.

Was wondering if anyone had a way to get it to work without the scroll in?

One way of doing this would be to just set the variable that controls the scroll to 0 (or 1?). Not sure what the variable is called off the top of my head, but it should be something like "b_scroll", "m_scroll", or just "scroll". Might also be "scroll[x]".

[rumpleduskin1972]

Looking for what you suggested I still couldnt figure it out,
but I stumbled upon this line,

yy = b_y[menu]+(scroll[m_c]-10)*40;

changed it to this, and somehow it worked.


yy = b_y[menu]+(scroll[m_c]-0)*0;

Seems to work great, thanks for the reply tho.

Hey Mordi :D

As the noob that I am (with 1 days of experience), I'm of course having trouble with this.
It's about the arguments when running the scripts in the events. When the dialog is up with the input, there's only displayed 5 arguments.

I've tried to search for some kind of solution, but haven't found any.
I guess that I'm doing something wrong :s

you are the one .. thanks man
