I have a problem. I want my cursor to change when over a hotspot.
For example. When i have the look mode, I want it to change to the look2(an brighter eye) cursor. So for every mode I want it to change in the 'mouseoverhotspot' mode. I want this with any hotspot and I hop[e there is a way to script this (in the global script perhaps?) for the whole game, for any hotspot. I've searched the forum and the help file, but did't seem to find the solution. So maybe one of U guys will help.

Here is a screenshot from the game I'm working on. It is about a friend of mine, so there are many jokes that only we would understand. It also is in Dutch but I will make an English version too if you people like the graphs etc. So thanx in advance for the help.

I'll pm you the code for this when I get a chance (im on a diff com) but if you want it straight away go have a look at Netmonkeys RON template (search in forums) as he uses this also.

But its more or less uses the ChangeCursorGraphic() Function.

Try to animate the cursor like this:

One frame, dark eye - spd 0
One or more frames, yellow eye - spd 6

If I am correct (probably the spd confused), this will create an animation of a quick dark eye and a slow yellow eye.

Check the box in the cursor menu, so it would animate only on hotspots.

That should give you a steady dark cursor and an animated one on hotspot (after a while the dark eye will return and recreate the loop).

I hope this will help you, ;)
