dialog wont show

[Kazeon]

guys, I have a very strange situation here.. I have function

function ShowMenu takes nothing returns nothing
    call DialogClear(dia)
    call DialogSetMessage(dia, "Menu" )
    set but[1] = DialogAddButton( dia, "Play", 0 )
    set but[2] = DialogAddButton( dia, "High Score", 1 )
    set but[3] = DialogAddButton( dia, "Statistic", 2 )
    set but[4] = DialogAddButton( dia, "Achievments", 3 )
    set but[5] = DialogAddButton( dia, "Quit Game", 4 )
    call DialogDisplay(Player(0), dia, true)
endfunction

and then call it

• Open
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 1.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Custom script: call ShowMenu()

dia is a dialog variable that I have initialized using text macro.. but the problem is the dialog won't be opened/shown.. what the hell is going on?

answer

set dia = DialogCreate()

Make a null check and look if it really is initialized. (That is possible in Jass, isn't it?)

function ShowMenu takes nothing returns nothing
    set dia = DialogCreate()
    call DialogClear(dia)
    call DialogSetMessage(dia, "Menu" )
    set but[1] = DialogAddButton( dia, "Play", 0 )
    set but[2] = DialogAddButton( dia, "High Score", 1 )
    set but[3] = DialogAddButton( dia, "Statistic", 2 )
    set but[4] = DialogAddButton( dia, "Achievments", 3 )
    set but[5] = DialogAddButton( dia, "Quit Game", 4 )
    call DialogDisplay(Player(0), dia, true)
endfunction
