Error Message!!

[meliedea]

Hello! I have a problem with my game. I have taken away the possibility of clicking the question of the dialogues with this script: CreateTimedEvent 1, MessageTimerObject.Enabled = false
However, if the player clicks by more than one turns on the text of the question, appears this message.


Why???

Hello and welcome to the Forums! (always wanted to say that )
Can you please give us more details of what you want to do (maybe a sample project)?


Help us to help you...

Hi doggy!

It's a short educational game, but It's for my University's thesis (it is Friday )!
I would like the dialogues not to be at all clickable!

Hi meliedea,
Hopefully someone more knowledegeable will be able to help you , but in the mean time, perhaps the answers to one of these two previous posts will help you.

One time a player had Chinese language installed on his computer and was able to "disable" Chinese to fix the problem.

Good luck.

I don't think you can disable clicking a dialogue... Why to do so? And if you do so, how is your player going to see the rest of the dialogue?

Anyway, to control the dialogues you must use DialogueObject, not messagetimerobject...

Hi,

I think this time the problem is not related to the language.

It is probably a problem of scripts.

Here is what you should do:

1) Create a new empty project
2) Create a test frame
3) Add a small test dialogue to that frame
4) Apply the same VBScript that you used in your other big project
5) Test and see if the problem still occurs

If the problem still occurs on your small test project, please compress it into a ZIP archive and attach it to this forum thread, so that we can find a solution.

Mmm...I think that the only solution is to insert the example. Thanks for your help!
These are the scripts I use:

In Frame properties:
For Each x in DialogueObject
x.FontName = "Chiller"
x.FontSize = 30
x.MousePointer = 0
Next

In Dialogue Wizard, in Advanced>After the question has been asked...:
CreateTimedEvent 1, MessageTimerObject.Enabled = False

When you open the project, please try to click repeatedly(5-6 times) on the dialogue, the error message should appear after some second.

[meliedea]

After many tests I solved my problem using this code

In project properties:
For Each x in DialogueObject
x.FontName = "Chiller"
x.FontSize = 30
x.MousePointer = 0
x.Enabled = False
Next


So I have a not-clickable dialogue, without mousepointer, in size 30 and font Chiller

Yuppy!

Ok, I am grad it is solved.

Thanks for sharing the solution.

I just realized that the error message you got initially was probably due to the fact that you were missing quotes in the second part of the statement:

Code: Select all

CreateTimedEvent 1, MessageTimerObject.Enabled = False

The correct statement should be:

Code: Select all

CreateTimedEvent 1, "MessageTimerObject.Enabled = False"
