Questions
#1

Hi all.

I found out that I can not access from GUI Script to GO properties. And now I have questions when best method to send GO property to GUI script. Post msg before use required data or something other method?

Thank you.

Message posting is probably a good idea, unless you need to pass a lot of data often. But if it’s something like updating a score or a health bar then msg.post() should work.

Yes. I need position dialog babble relatively game hero.

Ah, I see. Ok, so that should work well to pass along as a message.

Depending on the complexity of the dialog bubble it could also be created using a game object with a sprite and a label.
