Title: Making an always visable inventory and viewer
Post by: JackAnimated on Wed 18/12/2013 12:40:26
Hi,
If I wanted to make an area off to the side of the room image which was always there, with a picture of the character and the inventory, would I make this as a GUI, or in the backgroup with objects?

Similar below:

Hi,

if you wanted to always show the character image along with the inventory in ALL rooms I would plump for a gui.

If said image changes on a per-room basis (and doesn't need to actually change in the room) then including it as part of the room background would make sense. Otherwise I'd say use a GUI.

What? I don't even so far as to actually your meaning. I think you accidentally the whole forums.

That exactly what I meant.

Hmmm... After all these years it seems there are still some Britishisms that completely elude me. 8-)
