Another OnCollision Tutorial question lol

by Brian Wilmeth · in Torque Game Engine · 12/31/2005 (11:58 am) · 3 replies

I also am having a problem with the tutorial. When I touch the object it dissapears yes fine... but the counter isn't implemented. I found out that neither of the following functions in clientGame.cs

function clientCmdSetScoreCounter(%score)
{
ScoreCounter.setText("Score:" SPC %score);
}

function clientCmdShowVictory(%score)
{
MessageBoxYesNo("You Win!",
"Would you like to restart the game ?",
"loadMyMission();",
"quit();");
}

are being called at all :(.. I know this because I commented out the return in logoitem.cs and tried calling
commandToClient(%client, 'ShowVictory', %client.score); when I collide with an object
yet the "Do you want to quit" YES/NO message box doesn't show up when I hit the object.

Yes I executed the file clientGame.cs in main.cs in the GameOne folder, so that can't be the problem. I simply don't know what I did wrong?

I posted this too soon. I got it to work... I was very confused with how everything loads up. So I guess I might as well change the question.. How do I save my work?? Every time I open up TorqueDemo.exe it seems I have to create the GUI again for the game. Is this how its supposed to be?

You can save to a .gui file from the GUI editor, and then exec the .gui file like it was a normal script to get the GUI into memory. IF your objects are named then you can refer to them by name from script. Note there can only ever be one object of a given name at a time.
