Colorslide tutorial build fail[Solved]

Questions
#1

Project: here
Crash file: here

It will build, give an error and the game* will crash.
I copy pasted the code toward the middle of the tutorial to make sure I was doing the code right. I’m not quite sure if I’m doing something specific wrong.

Hi!

I’m sorry it crashes on you, I’ll take a look now!

HI @James_Westbrook !

I found the issue. It seems we don’t properly detect if the user sets a “.script” file to a Gui scene. The file suffix should be “.gui_script”.

To fix your project. rename your “level_select_gui.script” to “level_select.gui_script” (there is also a …gui_script option when creating new files). Then set this .gui_script file in your Gui scene.

I’ve added a ticket for us so that we can fix this issue more properly:

OH thanks for pointing this out! That was one detail I did not notice in the tutorial.

I do want to add I see they added “Only possible to add via a text editor” the engine let me type into the script field myself directly in there. I didn’t know it was looking for a .gui_script aka why the script wouldn’t come up so I copied the project path to put in myself initially.

Thanks! I’ll make sure we verify that as well!
