Have you looked at these objects in the maps and seen where they are pointed to and what the property settings are?
Open Game Guru and then press open and in the mapbank folder you will find these maps.

Take a look how they are set up.

In the fontbank folder are all the fonts, they are "bitmanfont" or they are only images and can be edited with any image editor, particularly I use Paint Shop Pro ... but any is good ... even GIMP that is free !!! The names of the files refer to the font sizes, you have to remember that in GG they are "recoded" in sizes 1,2,3,4,5 ... The letters (images) are in alpha channel ... And therefore maybe not seen in an image viewer ... but you open the channel and can be edited. I'm not on the team, but I hope I've helped you! A big greeting.

original:
En la carpeta fontbank se hallan todas las fuentes, son "bitmanfont" o sea que sólo son imágenes y se pueden editar con cualquier editor de imagenes, particularmente utilizo Paint Shop Pro... pero cualquiera es bueno... hasta GIMP que es gratuito!!! Los nombres de los archivos hacen referencia a los tamaños de las fuentes, hay que recordar que en GG se "recodifican" en tamaños 1,2,3,4,5... Las letras (imágenes) están en canal alfa... y por ello quizá no se ven en un visor de imágenes... pero abres el canal y se pueden editar. No soy del equipo, pero espero haberte ayudado! Un gran saludo.

It's a default scrip, but it will need editing for your game.

1. Go to your GameGuru\files\scriptbank\images folder, create a new folder with the name of the level your making
2. Rename your PNG image to 0.png and place it inside the folder you have created.
3. Go to GameGuru\Files\scriptbank and create another folder for your games specific scripts.
4. Go into the GameGuru\Files\scriptbank\stories\The Asylum and make a copy of startdisplay.lua, copy and paste startdisplay.lua into your games specific script folder that you just created.
5. Open up startdisplay.lua and find this line:

and replace "The Asylum" with the name of the folder you created in step 1.

Then just place it in any dynamic object (static=no in properties)

Job done.

There's also a script called winzoneimage.lua in the same stories\The Asylum folder, it does the same thing except you use it instead of winzone lua and it loads an image called 1.png from your image folder when you enter the winzone (you have to have both in the level if you want the winzoneimage to work because the winzoneimage script takes the image folder from the startdisplay script).

He's not a dev, he's a voluntary forum moderator.

Also this thread isn't about a free model, it's about a script, so should be in the Scripts forum

A. The scripting forum is busier than this one, there are people who are master scripters that only look in there
B. I would get home faster if I ignored the speed limit, but I don't speed because it's against the rules

Map?

You mean the radar? That's another default script, it should be in scriptbank\radar.

Just add radar.lua to a dynamic and always active object anywhere on the level.

I did show off a scrolling map display and based the demo on the Big Escape, maybe that is what is being referred to? It isn't a part of GG it was just something I came up with to show off what you could do with scripting and sprites.

That is my intention, I show off what can be done and throw the occasional snippet of script out to the community and hopefully it will trigger people to figure out how to do it themselves instead of moaning about what GG can't do.

I have 40 years experience of wrestling with computers so I've pretty much done all thus stuff before on other platforms (if you ever typed in one of those Spectrum programs from a magazine it may well have been one of mine ) which means I have a head full of how-to algorythms to call on.
