How to create an ingame menu

[Xellos]

I want to create an ingame menu in my new map, but I don´t know how to do it. Which triggers i have to use?

Could you please tell us more details about this?

Are you going to use..

.. Dialogboxes as Menu
.. Some Skills/Ability on Icons as choosable Options/Menu
.. or some Graphic stuff, like a fullscreen Inventory

I want to make a menu where you can choose between 6 options.

well, again no specifications..

but you can use the dialogboxes.. create them and let the user click on one of those 6 buttons..

You have to do some variables for each dialogbox, so create them, show them to the player and create a trigger that notices if dialogbutto X was clicked, and then just perform your action.. it's not that difficult, you should find all triggers and stuff for that..
(sry don't have any time to make a trigger template for you, maybe somebody will do it)

Sry but i´ve got no idea how to make variabels and how to use them I need a decription. I want that you can choose one out of six items. You have to klick at the name, which should come in a menu.

create a variable named "Dialogbox" and give it an array of 6 (related to dialogbox)
You have to create another variable called "Menu" (based on the Dialog)

Now make a Initialization trigger:

add something when your dialogboxes shall appear (e.g. Elapsed Gametime 10 seconds)

- None

- Create a Dialogbox for "Menu" named Option1
- Set "Dialogbox[1] = last created Dialogbox
- Create a Dialogbox for "Menu" named Option2
- Set "Dialogbox[2] = last created Dialogbox
- and so on till Dialogbox[6]
- Show last created Dialog (Menu) to all players (or only player1)

Now make a new trigger that detects if the Buttons are pressed/clicked:

- A Dialogbox is clicked for "Menu" (I'm writing out of my head, search for it it's something similar)

- clicked Dialogbox equal to "Option1"

- Now do whatever you want to.. run triggers, or else
