Dialog button help

S11 · May 11, 2012

Need help fixing .omg's Moded stat system, +Rep will be given

So i asked .omg if i could mod his stat system to fix my liking and he had said yes so what i did was I Created this Dialog, with 4 options, str, int, agi, cancel.

What i need Help with is

-When you hit ESC it shows how many stat points you have in dialog box
-When you spend a point it deducts it from the dialog and shows the new available stat points
-Does not glitch out rapidly clicking esc
-Does not glitch out dieing while putting stats in

Problems with this Dialog button

-Rapidly press ESC, stat system breaks
-Die while doing stat points, Stat system yet again breaks

Here are the codes

To prevent ESC bugging, use a boolean array. In ESC selection, check if boolean[plr number] == false. If it is false then do the actions and set the boolean to true. If the boolean was true, don't do any actions. When a player exits the dialog, set the boolean to false.

Thank you for that, but do you know how to make the number apear in the dialog box?

-edit-

i added in the boolean to esc selection and selection clearing and now when i click on a ablitly point to spend my ablity points it doesnt change my stats, and nor can i hit esc again ill show you the triggers

-edit-

i can spend the first 5 points and get my stats changed but once i spend all the points i can't hit essc anymore, even if i lvl, esc wont open dialog box

Also take into note sometimes when you keep using dialogues they can freeze up the players game making them unable to control units.

i realized that when i kept hitting esc, but thanks for the heads up

Why do you re-create the dialog everytime you run it?
You need to make it only once, even in initialization trigger, for better.

Waits below 0.27 do not work, so you can remove that too.

Set HeroStr[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = ((Strength of Stats_Hero[(Player number of (Triggering player))] (Exclude bonuses)) + 1)

Put that after all actions for Strenght and change it to:

Set HeroStr[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = (Strength of Stats_Hero[(Player number of (Triggering player)])

You can do it for all others as well.

Put an "Or - Any Conditions are True" here:

If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Clicked dialog button) Equal to DialogButton[4]
Then - Actions
Set Boolean[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = False
Dialog - Hide MyDialog for (Triggering player)
Else - Actions

And check when the player points are 0, this should fix the bug.

What exactly do you mean check when player points are 0, oh do you know how i would put in player points into the dialog box?, and how would i make the diaglog box run only once

You could check if the player has any points, so if there are no one left, close the dialog, instead of forcing the player to press the 'Cancel' button everytime.

water_Knight · May 13, 2012

A even easier way to say what MortAr said is

It will check if you have 0 points and not give stats if you do
