Mirage Source

I was wondering if someone could help me out, I installed the signs tutorial into a source set I have, and in it. When you type anything that involves / it brings up the thing and the thing for reading placed signs.
Thanks for any help.

look in handlekeypress (i think...) and it should have like if map.tile(x,y).type = tile_type_sign then
blah blah blah (basically where it displays the strings (1,2,3) when you hit enter, before that just do a

if MyText = vbnullstring then
sign code goes in here

end if

Ok I'm not sure what you mean...

Geee, lets think about this.
There is a problem when you press a /, so you trace it from the start, to where you think it ends. The start is the mouse_down, which goes to I think the handlekeypress, which in it has a bunch of ifs. One of those ifs contains a '/' and draws the sign. Look for that code.

If you don't want to think logically, you will have a hard time programing.

Ok I was asked to post this in a phone call by Shadow Dragon(poor guys grounded for 3months, he said me might sneak on every now and again), but he is confused by what you said earlier obsidian [qoute]look in handlekeypress (i think...) and it should have like if map.tile(x,y).type = tile_type_sign then
blah blah blah (basically where it displays the strings (1,2,3) when you hit enter, before that just do a

if MyText = vbnullstring then
sign code goes in here

end if[/qoute] The part that he is confused about is he thinks by the if MyText = that your talking about this
But he thinks that you could also be talking about this or this anyway he would appreciate it if someone could help out.

The last two snippets you posted seem irrelevant. The first deals with placing signs, the second deals with requesting the sign.

by:

Does he mean it brings up the sign editor, or the actual sign?
Saying the 'thing and the thing' isn't very helpful.

He installed this tut http://ms.shannaracorp.com/backup-forum ... asp?TID=56 And supposedly, haven't seen it myself, but he says "It brings up the picSign part, every time you type /w-e's desired" he confused me to.
