Title: Issue with clicking on certian things in the tutorial.
Post by: Dr.Starky on Wed 14/09/2011 15:54:48
In the tutorial, I have a lot of trouble interacting with a sample object. I go clicking over every pixel it has to get an intereaction.

And with the sample character that you test out your dialouge tree with, I haven't been able to even get an interaction out of him.

Is there anything I might be missing?

Did you associate the scripts with the actions in the events for the object/character?  (the lightning bolt on the properties pane)

Yes, I took care of the events.

EDIT: Wait, I tried a look command on the character and and the interaction worked fine.

Maybe there's something wrong with the dialouge script. I'm going to look at this myself for while and maybe come back if I still have troubles.

Nevermind everythings fine. I just overlooked something stupid.

Did you resolve the object issue?

Oh... not really. Thanks for asking!

I am able to interact with the key, I just had alot of trouble being able to click on it.

I don't know why.

Clicking with the interact (hand) cursor on a room object can be tricky if the object is relatively small. The hand cursor's hotspot is somewhere in the center so if the object is only a few pixels in size, it's easy to miss. It shouldn't be that hard though; how big is the object's sprite?
Are you using the Default Game template?

Thanks for the heads up about he goofy cursor. After I tweaked the cursor, the object became much easier to click on.

Everything is hunky-dory now.
