Overlay

[alimpo83]

I need to have a overlay in the screen until you press a key or left mouse button. I've managed to make a timed overlay, but I need to replace the wait command with a key press, right? Can you help me?

This is my script, with the wait command:

int over1;
over1 = CreateGraphicOverlay(0,0,45,1);
Wait(200);
RemoveOverlay(over1);

Thanks.

Firstly, what version of AGS are you using? As of 2.7, the way Overlays work has changed, and you'll want to use Overlay.CreateGraphical instead. (The old style still works, as long as you don't check the 'Enforce object-based scripting' option, but you should probably update anyway.)

Secondly, have you tried reading the manual? WaitMouseKey() might be what you want.

Thanks, it works and I've updated the script for the new command type.
