Quick Alias/Hud/Command Question

[germen]

Hi i have a question, if i am making a window that has choices on it like a regular option window. But the window is going to be on Scene_Map, like this:
I was trying a few things

class Scene_Map
  alias old_main main
  alias old_update update
  def main
    s1 = 'Quest::Name[1]'
    s2 = 'Quest::Name[2]'
    $cmd_window = Window_Command.new(160, [s1, s2])
    $cmd_window.visible = true
    $cmd_window.active = false
    old_main
    $cmd_window.dispose
  end
  def update
    $cmd_window.update
    old_update
    if $cmd_window.active
      update_quest
      return
    end
    if Input.trigger?(Input::C)
      unless $game_system.map_interpreter.running?
        Graphics.freeze
        @spriteset.freeze
        $cmd_window.active = true
      end
    end
    unless $game_player.moving?
      call_quest
    end
    if $game_temp.quest_window_showing
      return
    end
  end
  def call_quest
    $game_player.straighten
    $game_temp.quest_calling = false
  end
  def update_quest
    # nothing yet
  end
end

my problem is, when i start the game the character either moves with my options or when i freeze the graphics and update him the character ends up in a different spot, any reason why this is? I appreciate the help, its had me stumped, and as you can see I have tried several different ways!

I'm not a 100% on what you're trying to accomplish with your quest window when looking at your code, so I took some liberties with your update code. I apologize for this. But before that I'll try to explain the problem. The character was moving because input was being handled in Scene_Map old_update, well actually game_player.update, causing the player to move. But before the next frame was being drawn. Graphics.Freeze/spriteset.freeze was being hit hiding the movement until the window became inactive. At least that's my thought about it.

Alright so I cut out some stuff and moved all the code above alias old_update. My thought process was to restrict entry to old_update if the quest window is active and that's about all.

  def update
    # Update quest window
    $cmd_window.update
    
    # See if the user would like to adjust focus to or from the quest window.
    unless $game_player.moving?
      if Input.trigger?(Input::C)
        $cmd_window.active = !$cmd_window.active
      end
    end
    
    # If the quest window is active perform quest window work then return.
    if $cmd_window.active
      update_quest
      call_quest
      return
    end
    
    old_update
  end

In any case good luck with it! :thumb:
