Class <Dialog> has no field doDialogue

[NikRetaNCAM]

The dialog script (not finished)

The code in MenuState.hx referring to that script

How do i fix the thing???

Make the function static, if you want to call the function directly on a class

public static function doDialogue()
{

}

public static function doDialogue()
{

}

then makeGraphic thing doesnt work (unknown identifier)

Make a variable with the dialog type on the state

var dialog:Dialog = new Dialog();

Remove the static keyword (my mistake), and call the function directly from the variable like this

dialog.doDialog();

Dialog extends FlxSprite, you don't control FlxSprites by saying FlxSprite.makeGraphic(), right? you create instances and call methods on them, like so:

var sprite = new FlxSprite();
sprite.makeGraphic(640, 480 0xbf);

The same goes for classes that extend FlxSprite, you create Instances and call functions on the instances:

var dialog = new Dialog();
dialog.doDialog();

add(dialog);
same way you add a sprite. reminder that FlxSprite extenders are sprites and can be used just like a FlxSprite

i tried that, and it told me that it's an unknown identifier
also i want to add blaccthing and dText, not dialog

add(dialog) goes in clickPlay because sprites can be added to groups or to states, and clickPlay is a function of a FlxState. sprites cannot be added to other FlxSprite, meaning you cannot add blaccthing to your Dialog instance. perhaps your Dialog class should extend FlxGroup so that you can add sprites to it.

I recommend following the flixel tutorial and learning the fundamentals a bit more before bringing every issue to the discussions

im doing it literally by official flixel tutorial (but with additions bc otherwise it'd be boring)

[Geokureli]

yeah but you seem to struggling with some pretty basic haxe stuff, if you follow the tutorial you should learn all the things you're trying to do. and check out some demos too to spice things up

@NicklGames Did you manage to fix this problem?
