Layout of Select Mission

Hello and thanks for reading this message.

I have a new question, does anyone know how to make a screen: "select mission"?

<img src="http://oi38.tinypic.com/29mrsxg.jpg" border="0" />

I would like to add pictures of the missions, and clicking on these, load the selected mission. Can you do this?.

An image is not a button, so do not know if what I have to do is add better buttons.

Besides, I have the question of how these missions could be selected with the keyboard and mouse?.

Thanks and regards.

Use the mouse action 'on click...' whether it be left mouse, or double click. You can then select the object that is to be clicked I believe. It's either that or add a condition for if it is over that particular sprite.

After you click the sprite you can load a new layout.

As for a picture of the mission. You can play the layout and then do a screen capture. There is an event under "System" for that I believe.

You've got loads of options to do this, and I'm kind of surprised that there isn't a tutorial to cover this.

The easiest way by far is just to have a series of sprites on which the user clicks/taps using the mouse and/or touch object. In that sense, any sprite can become a button, you just use the mouse -> [On object clicked] action instead of using an action from the sprite itself.

As for keyboard input, that's a little trickier, but here's a quick example for using the left/right cursor keys to navigate a selection screen. Press return to select the level. Example capx [r126]

In my example I'm assuming all levels are labelled "Level 1", "Level 2", etc. The text action is just an example of how to use the currently selected level, you'd usually use an action like [Go to layout] -> "Level "&Selection.Selected+1

Thanks Xerullian ;)

I forgot to insert an object type Input Mouse, Keyboard to my project. Now I can see and use that option.

Thanks ;)

There's this video tutorial with Construct 2 that you may find helpful. Some of his other tutorials have helped me. It's on youtube under ConstructDude - level select tutorial. Here is the link.

Thanks for the example, I just downloaded this.

I want the option of the keyboard, so your project will be of much help.

If I have any questions ask here again.

Thanks :)

Glad to help :)
