Also when compiling a game and running the compiled game leads to a crash, see log files.
There are no errors in the editor for this scene.

If you are using the FPS Player and FPS HUD, when you can display a UI but you can not select any buttons with the HUD enabled, even if in the properties you change the option "selectable = false" (in the editor) you still can not click any buttons.

The way I have it is if you press the P Key (would prefer the Esc key) it opens an in game menu but I also have a trigger box that opens up another ui to display a .png file as a tutorial text, but it displays one or the other depends on what you load up first.

for example:

when the games running in the editor and I walk into the trigger box it displays the png file with tutorial info on it and the exit button is not selectable.

Now if I run it again and press the P key it does not load up the ingame (pause) menu, it shows the png info file menu.

Both ui's are in separate directories and the scripts are in seperate locations:


Pause menu script: scenescript and the UI is located in GUI/mainmenu/
tutorial UI: GUI/tutorial/fps/

hmm this sounds like something from the editor has been left in the player and game player release builds.

For the first 2 posts, it will help if we can have the scene to hunt the fault from.
We can activate a print that shows which entity is loading and track it from there based on entity type.

If you are using the FPS Player and FPS HUD, when you can display a UI but you can not select any buttons with the HUD enabled, even if in the properties you change the option "selectable = false" (in the editor) you still can not click any buttons.

I think this thread may help you as we have commands to knock the FPS out of shooting mode and into selection mode.

Now if I run it again and press the P key it does not load up the ingame (pause) menu, it shows the png info file menu.

Is this too do with the scene not clearing something out... maybes a video will help

We will be happy to help you get through this error

oh forgot to say it crashes when using the player and when trying to load a compiled blank scene...

thanks, i will check this out today.

Fixed Error 1) The reason why the player and game would not load is because i made a silly mistake in code and forgot to ifdef and editor feature out lol

[epsilonion]

for example:

when the games running in the editor and I walk into the trigger box it displays the png file with tutorial info on it and the exit button is not selectable.

I have noticed that the GUI that displays the png file is rendered behind the HUD and needs to be pulled to the front so that the exit button can be clicked, even better a way to hide the HUD.

The only way I could get rid of the hud was to use the sky.callGlobalFn and use the guihid(id,id); command...

[epsilonion]

I put this is the HUD script and it stops the hud from working even when its not been called...

Code: Select all

function globalFn( callingID, value )
      
   if(callingID == 6) then   
      Key = value;
         if (Key == 0) then
            gui.hide(guiID,guiID);
         elseif (Key == 1) then
            gui.show(guiID,guiID);
         end
end


Any ideas why its runnung through the function when the trigger box calling id of 6 is not calling the function?

Hey buddy,

Not sure if this is the reason, but it looks like you're missing an "end":

Code: Select all

function globalFn( callingID, value )
     
   if(callingID == 6) then   
      Key = value;
         if (Key == 0) then
            gui.hide(guiID,guiID);
         elseif (Key == 1) then
            gui.show(guiID,guiID);
         end
    end    -- NEW END
end
