    thats what i was thinking about doing
  • g
    i plan on getting the basic game logic working and then add textures later
  • f
    i'm not sure exactly how you're doing all this, but just remember that objects are positioned relative to their parent
  • g
    Copy code
    Begin = new Text();
        Begin.content = "Begin";
        Begin.font = font;
        Begin.color = Color.CYAN;
        Begin.anchor(0.5, 0.5);
        Begin.scale(2.8, 2.8);
        Begin.pointSize = 20;

        Credits = new Text();
        Credits.content = "Credits";
        Credits.font = font;
        Credits.color = Color.GRAY;
        Credits.anchor(0.5, 0.5);
        Credits.scale(2.2, 2.2);
        Credits.pointSize = 20;

        scene.add(this);
        this.size(scene.width, scene.height / 4);
        this.pos(scene.width * 0.5, scene.height - 10);
        this.anchor(0.5, 1);

        Credits.align = CENTER;
        Credits.pos(width * 0.6, height * 0.5);
        this.add(Credits);

        Begin.align = CENTER;
        Begin.pos(width * 0.4, height * 0.5);
        this.add(Begin);
    is in my constructor for 
    MenuOptions
    , both Begin and Credits are text
  • g
    the MenuOptions itself has the same width as the scene with 1/4 height
  • f
    when the scene's width is changed, it doesn't automatically change the MenuOptions's width
  • g
    thats what i thought, which is why i also tried binding a function to the resize event
  • g
    Copy code
    screen.onResize(scene, () -> {
            log.debug("resized apparently");
            this.size(scene.width, scene.height / 4);
            
        });
  • g
    it didnt help either
  • f
    my project resizes to different resolutions, but i don't use events
  • f
    i think there might be a problem with how you're listening to 
    screen
    resizing but you're resizing it based off `scene`'s size?
  • g
    yea, once the window(screen) resizes i want it to resize to the updated width and height
  • g
    it prints 
    resized apparently
    but the width doesnt actually update
  • f
    try doing this instead:
    Copy code
    hx
this.size(screen.width, screen.height / 4);
  • f
    also, quick tip, you can make discord color the code by putting in the file extension like this
  • g
    ive been doing \`\`\`haxe instead and the color hasnt been showing up, thats probably why lol
  • g
    let me try it
  • g
    still has an offset after a resize
  • f
    huh
  • g
    it still has an offset
  • f
    i saw
  • f
    that's weird
  • g
    oh i thought you said it like a question lmfao
  • f
    something i do and would suggest if you care about resizing
  • f
    it seems the way you're doing it now is that you have duplicate code in the creation/construction and in events
  • f
    Copy code
    hx
    override function resize(w:Float, h:Float) {
        super.resize(w, h);
        justResized = true;
        if (cursor != null) {
            resizeStuff(w, h);
            cursor.resize();
        }
    }

    function resizeAndAutoConnect() {
        resizeStuff(screen.width, screen.height);
        autoConnectUI();
        cursor.resize();
    }

    function resizeStuff(w:Float, h:Float):Void {
        
    }
  • f
    that's in 
    PrexScene
    , an extension of Scene that all my other scenes extend, with some neat utility
  • f
    Copy code
    hx
    override function create() {
        super.create();
        
        buttPlay = new PrexButton();
        buttPlay.addTextLang("mainmenu-play");
        add(buttPlay);
        buttPlay.onConfirm(this, playGame);
        
        buttCustom = new PrexButton();
        buttCustom.addTextLang("mainmenu-charCreator");
        add(buttCustom);
        buttCustom.onConfirm(this, doCustom);

        /*buttSettings = new PrexButton();
        buttSettings.addTextLang("mainmenu-settings");
        add(buttSettings);
        buttSettings.onConfirm(this, doSettings);*/

        buttExtras = new PrexButton();
        buttExtras.addTextLang("mainmenu-extras");
        add(buttExtras);
        buttExtras.onConfirm(this, doExtras);


        cursor.hoverTo(buttPlay);

        resizeAndAutoConnect();
    }
    
    override function resizeStuff(w, h) {
        buttPlay.resizeRect(width * .5, height * .2, 200, 40);
        buttCustom.resizeRect(width * .5, height * .4, 200, 40);
        //buttSettings.resizeRect(width * .5, height * .6, 200, 40);
        buttExtras.resizeRect(width * .5, height * .8, 200, 40);
    }
  • f
    so i'm not putting the positioning and sizing stuff in both the creation and the resizing
  • f
    it's the same thing
