Slime Salad

Points taken. I've been messing around and am still unable to find a way to make a slice collection loaded into a variable remove itself from the screen. When I do "free slice (sl)" it either says "unknown slice handle 0" or does nothing. I checked the slice editor with F8 and su...

Wow... derp. I have no idea why I didn't think of that before. No need to determine what type of object got clicked if you can just run checks through everything and let it find the thing it needs to find, right? Thanks TMC. The only overlap to consider would be inventory, spellbook and game menu ob...

To put it simply, I don't want to have every single contingency in the game's script to be shoved in a gigantic wall of text right beneath the mouse cursor loop. I'd rather have the code look at least somewhat clean and readable. So, to that end, I was hoping I could have simple concepts like "...

I'm trying to free slices for submenus when another submenu button gets clicked. The part where it loads the slice collection when clicking a submenu button works fine, but the other submenus (which take up the same screen area) are visibly not going away. Excuse the inconsistent looking organizatio...

I'm not sure if that would work. To clarify I was wanting to know if you could do something like if (mouseclicked(*,sli:hudcontainer)) then ( ...... To where you could fulfill the requirement of actually putting down a script argument but not HAVE to h...

Is there a way to have a wildcard/anything argument when checking a script? If I could just check for "whatever/HUD" then that'd be pretty easy.

In hspeak.exe I'm getting "script mouseclicked has no default for missing argument 1" from a line that's checking an if statement. Does this mean that you can in fact make default script arguments, and if so, how do you do that?

I have recognition of HUD slices working so far using James's script with some modifications. Moving forward, I'd really like to avoid a horrifying mess of frontloading all the different "mouse clicked (button, holder)" possibilities -- of which there will be dozens and dozens of -- into t...

I have to say I like Paint Tool SAI a lot for drawing big non-20x20-grid pixel art. I've been drawing the HUD and backdrops for the contest game I'm working on using the single pixel tool and a graphics tablet with some pretty good results. Makes me feel all Bob Ross 'n slime.

Oh dang, that sucks. Guess I'll just make them rectangles then.

Okay I am totally ripping off that mouse click code when I get home from work. I already have some ideas on how I'd like objects to be organized in the .hss

I have to say, the plotdict.xml stuff for "find colliding slice" is really confusing. I was thinking that finding a colliding slice under the mouse cursor x/y, getting its handle and returning that to another script would be a good approach but what does this command even actually do? The ...

I'm going to try to figure out how to make mouse plotscripting work over the weekend. If I'm not successful, I'll be dropping out a week in advance. This slime is doing my head in.

That's the first Google result that comes up when you search for "pixel art tutorial" or anything similar, for better or worse. I like that it explains fundamentals, but it's not what I'd consider a great novice tutorial. I REALLY wish I could re-find the one I stumbled on about a year to ...

Yeah that isn't it, it was something a lot more primitive looking. Did White Owl release any other games besides FUABMX?
