Unity GUI Style with if Statements

Questions & Answers
1

I need to make a menu. With the script I have, if a certain level is unlocked, the GUI button turns red, indicating to the player that they can now play that level. I know to make a button work, the code would be:

if (GUI.Button (Rect (20,40,80,20), "Level 1")) {
		Application.LoadLevel (1);

But my GUI has this code:

if(renderMenu && houseNineUnlocked && !explore){
		GUI.backgroundColor = Color.red;
		GUI.contentColor = Color.white;
		GUI.Button(Rect(700,720,500,50), ("House Nine"));

As you can see, there are multiple components to this, and a set of standards has to be met for the GUI to be rendered, and it has specifics too, like background color, and content color. I can’t put that into an “if” statement, so how would I do it?

(The only other way I can think of is using textures, but since the textures aren’t being worked on at the moment, that’s not an option.)

You can nest if statements inside of other if statements! (I know, it’s mind-blowing)

if(renderMenu && houseNineUnlocked && !explore) {
    GUI.backgroundColor = Color.red;
    GUI.contentColor = Color.white;
    if(GUI.Button(Rect(700, 720, 500, 50), "House Nine"))
    {
        Application.LoadLevel(1);
    }
}

Of course, this will not even render the button if the conditions are not met. Did you want the button to still render, but be greyed out?
