Help with GUI Box

Unity Engine
1

Here is my code:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class MyGUI : MonoBehaviour {
** public string textFieldString = “> Type Here…”;**
** void OnGUI(){**
** textFieldString = GUI.TextField( new Rect(0, 880, Screen.width, 25), textFieldString);**
** if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Return))**
** {**
** if(textFieldString.Contains(“open door”))**
** {**
** //make a GUI box appear that says “You open the door!”**
** GUI.Box( new Rect(0, 0, Screen.width, 50), “You open the door”);**
** }**
** }**
** }**
}

I want a GUI box to appear when I type open door and press enter, but it doesn’t seem to want to work.
can anyone tell me whats wrong with it?

Wow, just 31 minutes before bumping your own post!
You should use code tags to make your code readable :wink:

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class MyGUI : MonoBehaviour {

    private const string DefaultCommandPrompt = "> Type Here...";

    private string textFieldString = DefaultCommandPrompt;
    private bool showOpenDoorBox;

    private void OnGUI(){
        textFieldString = GUI.TextField( new Rect(0, 880, Screen.width, 25), textFieldString);

        if (Event.current.type == EventType.KeyDown  Event.current.keyCode == KeyCode.Return) {
            // Accept user input upon tapping return key.

            // Could perform string checks here for slight performance improvement.
            if (textFieldString.Contains("open door"))
                showOpenDoorBox = true;

            // Reset prompt for next command.
            textFieldString = DefaultCommandPrompt;
        }
        
        if (showOpenDoorBox) {
            //make a GUI box appear that says "You open the door!"
            GUI.Box(new Rect(0, 0, Screen.width, 50), "You open the door");
        }
    }
}

I haven’t tested the above, but it should work :slight_smile:
