Basically I want to know how to create a drag and drop of skills interface. Something similar to Guildwars. Any ideas?

I'm planning on using a similar system with neophagia, but different (of course). But the way one would load skills is very alike.

Gah sorry... There's a skills dialog or window, with a list of the available skills that you drag to a skills bar to use. It then loads the bar with the skills you have drug onto it.I'm planning on using a similar system with neophagia, but different (of course). But the way one would load skills is very alike.

@Jason, this could be accomplished with a GuiDragAndDropControl most likely -- though, depending on how your implemented it, It could also be done with OnMouseDown, onMouseMove and onMouseUp and some t2dSceneObjects (Static Sprite, Animated Sprite, whatever) ...

So your saying i need to code a GuiDragandDrop control basically? Which is what i figured... If a player clicks on a skil i want them to be able to drop them into a slot.

I would agree that your best bet is using TGB objects (such as text object and static/animated sprites). Coding a drag and drop control in TGB scripting should be fairly trivial too :)
