Javascript GUI?

Unity Engine
1

Hello, so I am working on my Tutorial series and I came across something that got me stuck, I know it’s really simple, I just can’t figure it out! I need it so when I click the button “Status” I need a GUI box to show up displaying Variables and some text. :stuck_out_tongue:

var maxHealth : int = 100;
var currentHealth : int = 100;

function Update () {
	
	if(currentHealth < 0) {
		currentHealth = 0;
	}
	
	if(currentHealth > maxHealth) {
		currentHealth = maxHealth;
	}
	
	if(maxHealth < 1) {
		maxHealth = 1;
	}
	
	if(currentHealth < 0) {
		Application.LoadLevel ("Gameover");
	}
}

function OnGUI () 
{
       if (GUI.Button (Rect (120, 10, 100, 20), "Status")) 
       {
           
       }
}

what the issue ?

create your box stuff maybe in a separate function and just use a bool flag when you hit your button so your box stuff get called, in other term make you a toggle “like” things with that flag.

well that is one option, should be straight forward to do i guess :wink:

if (GUI.Button (Rect (120, 10, 100, 20), "Status")) boolFlag = !boolFlag;
if(boolFlag) MakeMyBox();

Well my problem is I can’t get a GUI box to show when I press the button, i’ll try your method.
