Ok, I got pretty retarded for a while, but after looking at my alternatives, although there are more powerful ways of getting this done, I'm not sure I'm ready to go somewhere else. AGS is pretty powerful. I'd like to make at least a couple games with AGS before I leave completely. I'd like to learn C and write an engine myself, but there's a lot I'd LIKE to do. So, I think I'll still be producing TMI with AGS. As for the GUI I'm building, I'm having a lot of problems. It's hard for me to describe, so I'll let some of you play around with it and tell me what I can do to fix it. I'm uploading the entire folder (for the game, not just Compiled) to my website:

Thanks for the help in advance. Some thing I know, but don't know how to fix:
When you click on a button, it will sometimes highlight the button above the one you clicked, and when you release the mouse button, it creates a very jerky movement as the cursor jumps to a set point???

The link doesn't seem to work. It says I can't get access you the site or something.

Are you using GetGUIAt(mouse.x,mouse.y) to figure out which button the mouse is over? You might have gotten the numbers wrong. The main problem I had alot with making GUI's is that sometimes I didn't have the buttons set on run script. This is probably really irrelivant but maybe it will help. Just a random thought. About the jerkey movement. Are you telling the cursor to move or is it doing it by itself.
Oh, I just thought of something: Check the hotspots on your cursors. The hotspot might be way above the cursor, on the button above where you think it is. You might be switching cursor modes and this could cause the jerkey movement.
Hopefully something in there will help you.

Edit, for some reason not all my cursor hotspots were in the correct position. I swear I had them set up correctly. I don't know why the link didn't work, but I'm taking it down anyway. I'm not ready to release even a beta testing of this GUI yet. Thanks for the help!
