Title: Hide main cursor when an inventory item is selected
Post by: anarchist on May 28, 2015, 08:38:53 PM

I have several inventory items for which I have created cursor sprites. When I select an inventory item I want to hide the main cursor and only show the item cursor. Some item cursors are smaller than the main cursor which results in both cursors being visible.

I have tried adding the following code in game.script:

Code: WME Script

1. // clicking an inventory item
2. else if(ActObj.Type == "item" && Item == null)
3. {
4.         Game.SelectedItem = ActObj;
5.         Game.RemoveCursor();
6. }
7.  

This removes the main cursor when the mouse is not over a scene entity or actor. But when the cursor hovers over a scene entity or actor, the entity specific cursor appears together with the item's cursor.

A solution would be to make all item cursor sprites larger than the scene entity cursor sprites. But I wonder if there is an easy way through script.

Can't you just set the item cursor in the item definition file?
