9 and 3? so it's gotta be the reply number. Thats the only thing that changed between the posts. Even/Uneven maybe.

Or

stupot+ computes the points with a combination of the actual poster and his/her predecessor? But how?

So you would suggest to leave the character sprite (the one that talks in the background) empty and replace it with an animated button that has the size of the screen and is using the same sprites and animations at the character sprite's location in an otherwise 100% transparent GUI? When does the Button get animated? when the player clicks on anywhere in the screen?
Or am I misunderstanding something here? 

I am still trying to do it with the BgSpeech module which uses the overlays you suggest. But my problem is the timing. I need the translator speech to be "Say" - so that the game only goes on when the player clicks it away - but the "Say" speech has to appear only when the upstream overlay with speech animation appeared. How do I time that? Does it need to be realized completely in r_e_a and r_e then? If yes, How do I simulate the "click"?

I simplified the officials speech now to a simple "*talks in german*" so that I can always use the same code. I just need to crack my timing problem.

Code: ags

Yeah. It's called Brix but I can accept that It's your turn Atavismus, when you tell me, if you knew that from your personal shareware games era or how you found it out ^^

yeah I know and i tried that but it doesnt work as expected. how would you code an example that does what i want to achieve?

nope

Here is some brain teaser beauty from the past. Anyone remember that?

That is Sinistar Unleashed! It was in a popular german computer game magazine Looked beautiful at it's time. I could never beat it ...

yup! your turn!

Okay, so that "fire" took me way too long!

In Hilton Street there is a house, with wooden frames all black.
The lovely dame that lived there once, is never coming back.

Every day she gave out coins to compensate two boys.
But shopping for the Granny Smith won't make the cost of toys.
"Dude, two bucks is not enough", the smaller one then said.
With a pretty nasty grin agreed the older lad.

When Lady Betty did her walk into the lovely morning sun,
the foxy kids sneaked in the house and the tragedy had begun.

Searching through old Lady's junk they came across a jar,
that - standing on a kitchen rack - was out of reach by far.
"That glass is full of dollar coins!" the smaller one assumed,
Some sturdy can beside the stove looked good at first, but quickly they were doomed.

While older boy stood on the can to get the treasure trove,
the smaller tried to hold that thing - and then he hit the stove.
As they got that worthy jar and sacked the coins inside,
the can's content - still on the stove - met a naturally might.

In Hilton Street there burned a house, two boys died in one whack.
The lovely dame that lived there once, is never coming back.
In Hilton Street there burned a house, the event, they say, was dire.
A can of oil, put on a stove, has been the cause of fire.

Have you ever heard the beat of four squaredancing feet?
No? So better go with speed to a dance school meet and greet!

next word : attempt

For my refugee adventure The Refuge I want to create a situation, where the arabian player character talks with a german official supported by an interpreter/translator sitting in the same room. My idea is now to let the official say some stuff with talk animation (e.g. "Hallo Herr Hamri, .... ..... ..... ..... ...... .....") wait a few cycles and let the translator say it in the language the player understands while after another few cycles the official stops talking (as in a common translation process).

I tried to solve this problem in several ways but never found a solution that a) includes speech animation when the official talks and b) shows the two speeches in parallel with the staggering disappearings.

Anybody got an idea how to code this translator situation? Any ideas are welcome!

Nope
