Thanks so much for your help! I like how you answered every single thing I had needed to figure out. I'll go through what you posted and let you know when I have everything as I need.

If this works I'm definitely giving you a place in the ending credits. I really respect those who give such detailed, helpful responses.


Kudos

I've been working at this for over a week and have searched all over to try and have the gui/inventory just like in Gemini Rue (on steam, made with AGS). If you play the demo you'll see exactly what I want for my game. 100% the same type of gui (obviously modified graphics and "move" instead of "kick")

I have the latest version of AGS and managed to modify the original verbcoin gui enough so that left click walks and right clicking brings up the Verbcoin Gui. The problem is that it's very glitchy and seems to crash far too often, so I suppose I can't read the scripting well enough yet (putting 100% effort into it though).

I need the Gui to do the following:

1. Left click makes the character walk and displays the hotspot name above and to the right of the cursor (not the middle of the screen!)
2. Right click brings up a hybrid verbcoin inventory where you can click "look, use, talk, move" and you can see items you've picked up right below those icons.

In other words, when you right click you'll be able to see the verbcoin gui and inventory. I only want right click to work on hotspots and not just anywhere on the screen. So if you right click on a blank spot/non-hotspot area then it won't do anything.

Does anyone have a nice template that they'd be willing to share so that I can get to this point? Once I have the gui set I can actually work on my storyline, scenes, rooms, characters, dialogue (the whole game) so I can't tell you how much this will help me.

Here is what I have right now as my VerbCoin Gui:
