Breakout tutorial-- Greyed out when scoreboard is used

by Remorseless · in Technical Issues · 05/24/2010 (4:30 pm) · 2 replies

I was following the breakout tutorial. And i got the scoreboard working (kinda). It shows up now, but the rest of the screen is just grey. I can no longer see my own level art. Just grey screen and white font. Any ideas? i checked the tutorial discussion but seems it has been dead for bout 2 years now.

Also when i change "$levelscore=0;" in the "theLevels.cs" it wont change. It is on "0" no matter what i put in there.

Any help would be greatfully appreciated.


theLevels.cs

//Initialize Level
function initializeLevel(){
Canvas.pushDialog(ScoreboardGui);
$levelscore=250;
}

and scoreboard gui is basially exact copy from tutorial

I also have done the Breakout tutorial, but I cannot get the scoreBoard gui to be visible at all. I checked all suggestions in earlier thread and got nowhere. I am running TGB 2d release 1.75 on Windows 7. Everything else in tutorial has worked great, until I have tried the GUI.
