Description:
How would I get an image to follow the mouse using MouseEntered()

I know MouseEntered() and MouseExited() is what I'll be using to do this, but I don't actually know how to put it into code.

Does someone that knows or has already done this have a basic example of this they could share with me?


Thanks.

What exactly are you using it to do? Explain and I MAY have an idea.

Pretty much an inventory, that when you hover over the items. A new hud appears with the details and bonus's about the stats. I know how to get that much working except for the whole image following the cursor.

Then you'd probably want the MouseOver() proc in the item.

mob/var
    BlastLevel=1
    BlastDamage=50
    BlastDrain=20
    BlastDelay=5

turf/Blast
    icon='blasts.dmi'
    icon_state="blast"
    MouseEntered()
        usr.BlastEntered()

mob/proc

    BlastEntered()
        src << "Level:[src.BlastLevel]\nDamage: [src.BlastDamage]\nEnergy Drain: [src.BlastDrain]\nDelay: [src.BlastDelay]"

Just a basic. I used the MouseEntered proc to call upon another proc which will show the user the stats of the blast.

If you want it in a browser like a little box, tell me. I am not 100% experienced, this took me 15minutes to do.. But I can make it so a box appears with they hover over. The only thing is I don't "think" I know how to make the box appear beside the mouse. lol.

That's what I'm looking for to be honest, a hover box to appear next to the mouse with recorded stat bonuses or whatever. I can do the stat bonuses, just not the hoverbox at mouse location.

Well, let me update that code for you. Though, you can make it appear NEAR the mouse I guess. I will give you new codes. You'll need skins also.. Bleh. How about you just add me on my MSN? [email protected] - I will help you from there to make this quick.

I already added your msn, from following your other posts. It's [email protected]

Just waiting for you to accept, that's all.
