Shop Menu

[killerogue]

Heyo guys, I had never really scripted anything using Gui Controls before, so I decided to try something tonight.

Had a bit of help from Twinny, on the "button.onAction()" functions.

Anyway, here's a basic menu class that is brought up once you enter the level containing the class (preferably a shop ;)). I left the some space inbetween the buttons and chat. You can put your icons or whatever there, or even rearrange it. Just so you have something to start you off/help you out!

Class:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerEnters() {

new GuiWindowCtrl(Stan_Window) {
profile = "GuiBlueWindowProfile";
extent = "300 300";
x = 50;
y = 50;
text = "Shop Window";
visible = true;
canResize = false;

new GuiScrollCtrl(Stan_Window_Scroll) {
profile = "GuiBlueScrollProfile";
extent = "250 100";
x = Stan_Window.width - 275;
y = Stan_Window.height - 110;
visible = true;
hscrollbar = "alwaysOff";
vscrollbar = "dynamic";
}

new GuiButtonCtrl(Stan_Window_Buy) {
profile = "GuiBlueButtonProfile";
extent = "97 25";
position = "5 23";
text = "Buy";
}

new GuiButtonCtrl(Stan_Window_Sell) {
profile = "GuiBlueButtonProfile";
extent = "98 25";
position = "101 23";
text = "Sell";
}

new GuiButtonCtrl(Stan_Window_Leave) {
profile = "GuiBlueButtonProfile";
extent = "97 25";
position = "198 23";
text = "Leave";
}

new GuiMLTextCtrl(Stan_WindowText) {
profile = "GuiBlueMLTextProfile";
x = Stan_Window.width - 265;
y = Stan_Window.height - 100;
text = "Welcome to my store!";
}
}
}

function Stan_Window_Buy.onAction()
Stan_WindowText.setText("What would you like to buy?");

function Stan_Window_Sell.onAction()
Stan_WindowText.setText("What would you like to sell?");

function Stan_Window_Leave.onAction()
Stan_WindowText.setText("Leaving so soon? Come back again!");

You don't actually have anything in that scroll control. If you wanted to add a control to it, you would do

new GuiScrollCtrl("blah")
{
//vars

new GuiTextCtrl("blah2")
{
//vars
}
}

Currently you just have a control over it.

Why not add a way to easily add items to be sold? Make an inventory system? So far it's just an empty gui control.

you should put this on your examples for GUI controls. Its a super simple script to just read and understand (of course add some //Purpose, after each line
