In Curves, the cursor changes to a talk bubble when its moved over a character - or perhaps in the case of some other character it's changed to a fist. Or at least, that's what should happen. How should I implement this? I put this in the character's script file, and it didn't work...

Code: [Select]

on "MouseEnter"
{

if(Game.GetCursor()=="sprites\cursors\others\arrow.sprite")
{
Game.SetCursor("sprites\cursors\Others\talk.sprite");
}

}

on "MouseLeave"
{

Game.SetCursor("sprites\cursors\Others\arrow.sprite");

}



The problem is with the GetCursor thing. How does it work?

[Mnemonic]

GetCursor should indeed return the filename of currently assigned cursor sprite.
But...but, why not to use directly the SetCursor method of the character?
Like:

Jaf.SetCursor("sprites\cursors\Others\talk.sprite");

That way you don't have to mess with those MouseEntry/MouseLeave events.

Wat if the cursor is an inventory item? Wouldn't it mess it up then?

If there is an inventory item selected, it will override the cursor setting. But I suppose that's what you want, or not?

[deadworm222]

But if I WANT to use an item with a character, and I don't want the cursor to change from the item picture to the talk bubble? In that case I need to use the checkup, but it's not working...

Try using Game.SetActiveCursor / Game.GetActiveCursor instead.

All right, thanks!
