Consecutive message boxes

[+MKW]

I want to show two message boxes. I can't use the dialog command, because I want to attach a script to the OK-button.

The problem: the first box doesn't wait for the OK-button to be pushed, it just runs through.

Add the second message box into the 'Script to run when button click' on the first message box

Hi!

 

Have you used a button script before? It's a great feature for what you want to do.

 

I attached a screen captured image of the message box window, and here is the direction on how to use a button script feature.

 

Fill in the Button 1 or 2 text box if you want to customize your buttons. After that, click,

Click on Script to run when button clicked...

 

After that, create a script to execute when the button is clicked. Go to IF-THEN and there should be an option that says, "if a button is clicked on a message box.."

 

Does this make sense? Good luck! Let me know how it goes!

Thanks!

That's a nice workaround, but it doesn't really solve my problem.

The first message is optional. It is nested in an if-statement.

The second message should be shown every time.

 

btw: I think it is a bug, which should be fixed.

It's not a bug. It is just the style of the language and has been explained in other threads: like here

You could create a messagebox in the 'else' part which is identical to the secondary messagebox in the 'if' part.

In this code, if variable var equals "something" msgbox1 will be displayed followed by msgbox2

if var is not equal to "something" just the 'copy of msgbox2' is displayed:

 

function zonezone2:OnEnter()
-- #GroupDescription=enterzone --
-- #Comment=enterzone Comment --
if   Wherigo.NoCaseEquals(var,"something") then
Wherigo.MessageBox{Text=[[msgbox1]],Callback=cartlua.MsgBoxCBFuncs.MsgBoxCB1}
else
Wherigo.MessageBox{Text=[[copy of msgbox2 ]],}
end
end

if action ~= nil then
-- #GroupDescription=oinclick --

Wherigo.MessageBox{Text=[[msgbox2]],}
end
end
