[on_mouse_click(MouseButton button)]

Hello,

In the callback  on_mouse_click(MouseButton button)

I try to detect which button has been pressed:

Code: ags

switch(button) {
  case eMouseLeft:
    Display("left button");
    break;
  default:
    Display("unknown button: %d", button);
    break;

The problem is when i press left button, it's not seen as a eMouseLeft code.

The enum is described like this in the documentation:

Code: ags

enum MouseButton {
  eMouseLeft,
  eMouseRight,
  eMouseMiddle,
  eMouseLeftInv,
  eMouseMiddleInv,
  eMouseRightInv,
  eMouseWheelNorth,
  eMouseWheelSouth
};

So eMouseLeft must be 0 or 1 i think (depending the start index).

When i press the buttons of my mouse, it triggers the default branch in my switch/case.

I get those values from my display box:
left : 5
right : 6
middle : 7
wheel up : 8
wheel down : 9 (note the value greater than the number of values in the enum)

Well... i don't understand what happens.

Thank you.

[liste_room[]]

Hello,

In debug build, i'd like to gather objects in all the room to check some relations between them, in their custom properties.

As objects are linked to rooms, i have made a shortcut key which start the check in the AGS game loop. The check changes room, gather objects and repeat until last room is reached.

At game startup, i fill the array (liste_room[]) with all the rooms index (when there are no more rooms, i put -1 as a value to indicate it's over).

Then, the keyboard shortcut initializes ask_for_objects_testing boolean to true.

And in the function repeatedly_execute() , i've put

Code: ags

  if (ask_for_objects_testing == true) {
    int initial_room = player.Room;
    for (int i=0; liste_room[i]>=0; i++) {
      log(String.Format("parsing room: %d", liste_room[i]));
      player.ChangeRoom(liste_room[i]);
    }
    // go back to initial room
    player.ChangeRoom(initial_room);
  }

But it hangs at the second call of player.ChangeRoom

I get this error:

NewRoom : Cannot run this command since there was a NewRoom command already queued to run in "GlobalScript.asc

So i think it's related a re-entrance issue in the internal loop of AGS, but i don't know how to handle this.

Thank you.
