Sometimes dialog will not respond

Post by aboredprogrammer » Thu Feb 04, 2010 8:38 pm

Sometimes in my dialog1, I will need to click a button 4-5 times in order for it to then respond. For example, if I go to the Menu button "Misc." and then "Eject Disc" I will have to do it about 4-5 times. What could be the cause of this?

Can you post your script or at least the dialog action loop?

Possibilities include:
- a badly placed resetdialogaction> line.
- script redirecting away from the getdialogaction> line
- redirecting away from the if>dialogaction result=button result line.
- a long wait in the loop

Solved.

It was a misplaced ResetDialogAction>dialog1
Haha you're almost always the first one to respond.

Thanks JRL

Its not my fault. You keep asking easy questions. Ask a hard one and you'll get a response from one of the smarter users. :wink:
