Title: Additional UI screen pop-up
Post by: soulcypher on Fri 02/09/2016 18:23:09
I'm wondering how to make screen pop-up similar to Primordia. When you click on hotspot you get an close up with text screen UI.
Could you point me how to make it something similar. Does smaller UI screen need to be new room?

No, just create a new GUI, determine it's size, where to place it, BG pic, labels/buttons (to click on) etc. Then link the hotspot to open the GUI...

... although in some cases, if the popup is only relevant to one location, and depending on its complexity, it might be better to implement it as a room object (or set of room objects).

Thank you both.

If I use new room how to close the small 'room GUI' when the player is done doing?
