Gui Help

[patrickp2p]

I've been looking up on Google, the forum, wiki, and everything else that has to do with Graal for a solid Gui tutorial! I can not find any site AT ALL that even remotely has a solid tutorial.. Can someone please give me a solid template or something? I need a new one please or a link to a solid tutorial.
Thanks,
P@TR!CK

Not a tutorial, just kind of help

Thanks but as I mentioned I have looked at it... D: It tells you what to put, but what does it mean, where do I put the things? You know? It's as if you need a teacher, which I'm sure alot of scripters had.

[Cubical]

Most scripters learned from trial and error, the wiki, the forums, irc and asking other scripters advice.

I know D:
Care to help? (:
All I really need is a template.

Just use the in-game gui builder, F6 all the way lol. It gives you the source so you can see what it does then you just go from there. I used this along with a bit of help from the wiki and got guis under control in 1 and a bit hours lol =P gl dude

Thanks! That helped me a bunch XP. What do I put so it will show up to all players when they log on (It's basically a gui telling players about hirings and how to contact me).

I suppose you could call a function inside the GUI script from the NPC-Control when the player logs in ie. this goes in the NPC-Control:

PHP Code:

function onActionPlayerOnline(){
 findWeapon("your weapon name").Test();
} 


Replace the function Test() with the function that shows/activates the GUI in the script, and make sure that the function in the GUI script is a public function so that other NPCs can access it.

Add the weapon to players when they log on, and show the window in the onCreated event of the weapon on clientside.

excessively wasteful, should just be in a weapon players have upon login, and the showing of the GUI should be done in onCreated event clientside
