Window Refresh and dissapear when menu is up problem

Latest Post

Hi guys, before I start I will say that I am VERY new to scripting. Infact this is the first script I've worked on.

Anyhow. I've done my best to understand adding windows, refreshing, updating etc, however I have made this small script and I have a problem.

The window does NOT disappear when i enter the menu.

And the window does not update until I leave the menu. UPDATE: I was ale to get it to update with attr_accessor:variable but it still the next problem;

But then, it updates on top of the window so it still has the previous values AND the new values.

Could someone please shed some light on my situation?

Betting Window
Code: 
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------

# * Sir Ver's Betting Window V.1

#----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

class Betting_Window < Window_Base

  attr_accessor:variable

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Object Initialization

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def initialize

    super(0, 0, 256, 96)

    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)

   self.opacity=160

    #-------------------------------------------------------------------------

   # * Display Gold and Wins

   #-------------------------------------------------------------------------

   @gold=$game_variables[25]

   @wins=$game_variables[24]

    refresh

  end

  

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Refresh

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def refresh

    self.contents.clear

    

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Betting Table

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 256, 32, "Betting Table",1)

    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 256, 65, "Games Won")

    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 256, 66, @wins.to_s, 1)

    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 256, 97, "Gold Won")

    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 256, 97, @gold.to_s, 1)

    

    end

   #-------------------------------------------------------------------------

   # *Update every Frame

   #-------------------------------------------------------------------------

   def update

     #* Something has changed

    if (@gold !=$game_variables[25]) or (@wins !=$game_variables[24])

      @gold =$game_variables[25]

      @wins=$game_variables[24]

      

      refresh

    end

 

    super

end

I haven't tried it out yet, but it should work. If it doesn't, let me know. As a word of advice, attributes are variables you can access from other classes, so it wouldn't be of much help here. I reorganized your code, by the way.

Ruby: 
#==============================================================================

# ** Sir Ver's Betting Window v1.0

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#==============================================================================

 

class Betting_Window < Window_Base

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Object Initialization

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def initialize

    super(0, 0, 256, 96)

    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)

    self.opacity=160

    @gold = $game_variables[25]

    @wins = $game_variables[24]

    refresh

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Frame Update

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def update

    old_gold = @gold

    old_wins = @wins

    super

    if (old_gold != @gold) or (old_wins != @wins)

      refresh

    end

  end

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  # * Refresh

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  def refresh

    self.contents.clear

    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 256, 32, "Betting Table",1)

    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 256, 65, "Games Won")

    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 256, 66, @wins.to_s, 1)

@Juan J. Sánchez

Firstly, thank you for giving this a go, I have been waiting for help for a while.

haha, I figured it out, it was a problem with what I was doing. It refreshes now, but I'm still unsure how to make it dissapear while the menu is up (You know, when you press X)
