Introduction & What We Need
Hey all here is a small tutorial on how to create a dialog (Those boxes where you can input information or select a list). Its my first tutorial so it may be a bit newbish, but when I started scripting I thought creating dialogs was the greatest challenge for me. For this tutorial I will be using ZCMD by Zeex for easy command processing.
Lets Get Started!
So down by the bottom of our script just like any other ZCMD command we will start it off using...
Now in our command we will add this
Time to explain the ShowPlayerDialog! So obviously this function will work on playerid.
What 1 is its the ID for the dialog, don't repeat this number in any other ShowPlayerDialog which you will understand why later. We can also add names to them, which is complicating and just a pain, I prefer to use comments but if you choose to add names you have to have enumerators and defines..
This dialog is going to be a list dialog. The other types of dialogs are.. FOUND HERE.
Ok now we have our dialog type, we want to add a comment so the user knows what he is doing. For the list Dialog we can only add 1 comment, but for all the other types of dialog's we can have 2 as we don't need to define list items. Our comment is "Select A Location".
Now we are defining our list items. The \n will create a new line and start a new list item. Easy huh?
The final 2 parameters are what the buttons will say. The first button is our success button so we will name that select and the other is the opposite so we will name that cancel. Now we have our dialog command setup! But if we we're to test it, nothing would happen
.
This is our code so far...
To change what our dialog does we will now need to go to public OnDialogResponse section. So the first thing we need to do is make sure we are getting the select response so we will...
So now we need to find out what dialog we're dealing with so lets use a switch and case system here. So we will add to the successful response.
Conclusion
Congratulations, if you made it this far you now have a working dialog. Feel free to experiment with your creations. Sorry if I may have made a mistake, please post some constructive criticism as a reply. This is my first tutorial and I barely know that much about scripting. This is the final mish mash of all we have just scripted..
Thank You, kay bye.
