I'm having trouble trying to figure out some scripting using an 'if' function. My intention is that if one object's visibility is turned off by a mouse click that this will trigger another item's visibility to turn on. I've been scanning through the video tutorials for some guidance, as I recalled seeing if functions being used there, and I've had a look through the AGS wiki too. I'm probably missing something, but any help would be really appreciated.

My code looks like this:

function carkeys_AnyClick()
{
carkeys.Visible = false;

if (carkeys.Visible = false){
carkeyicon.visible = true;}
}

I tried to run this code but the error I get is

Error (line 33): Parse error in expr near 'carkeys'

The thing is, I'm not sure what that even means.

Hello,

I'm fairly new to AGS, but I've been doing a lot of reading up and snooping around for code related issues. There is one, however, that has me completely stumped and unable to find an answer to in the manual or the forums (I'm hoping I haven't just missed it!).

For my game I only want there to be two mouse modes: Pointer and Interact. I've disabled all the other mouse modes using the mouse.DisableMode functions and that seems to work fine. But, here is my dilemma. When the game starts up, there is no cursor. At all. I have to scroll the wheel on my mouse downwards for it to show up the Interact mouse mode. Cycling through results in about two more blank cursor modes before it gets back to the Interact one. The Pointer mouse mode is entirely skipped out. I also checked to make sure I hadn't disabled it by accident.

Does anyone have a clue what's up or a way to get around the issue?

Also, is there a way to set the mouse to a specific mode upon start up? E.g. have the Interact cursor as the default cursor at the start of the game.

Like I said, I've tried to find a solution to this on my own but have had no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers, AGS forum goers!
