So i am very new to this but im sorta catching on pretty quick but one thing i have yet to find out is, how do i open up a new .au3 from a function that is activated by using a button from a GUI scrip. If that didnt make sense maybe this will   Player Selection GUI.au3

What i want to do is to have these buttons activate a different function depending on what the User clicks

So my idea is it would look something like this, When user would click on #1 another GUI would appear and ask for a USERNAME  Choose Name P1.au3 which i think i have scripted properly since is runs

Func OnePlayer()

Run " Choose Name P1.au3"    iknow this isnt the actual function but i dont know what it is...

EndFunc

Func TwoPlayer()

Run " Choose Name P2.au3"  

EndFunc

 

etcetera etcetera...

Havent found any help with this anywhere so it must just be a newby thing

Thanks for any help

 

Player Selection GUI.au3

Choose Name P1.au3

K3STROS,

Welcome to the AutoIt forums.

Why bother opening a new script? Just combine the 2 scripts into a single one. I suggest you read the Managing Multiple GUIs tutorial in the Wiki to see how it is done.

And given the titles of your scripts, please read the Forum rules before posting again to make sure you stay within them.

So this is what i have got so far... Could someone please let me know what im doing wrong at this point? The next thing that should be poping up depending on which of the 4 buttons you click should be another GUI with 1-4 input boxes for player names, but then nothing happens... Ive been going at it for a couple hours and i really feel like a moron. Thanks in advance

K3STROS,

No you are not a moron, but let us stick to just the one thread at a time. And when you post code please use Code tags - see here how to do it.  Then you get a scrolling box and syntax colouring as you can see above now I have added the tags.

Now to look at the code....

K3STROS,

Here is a working version of your code:

Please ask if you have any questions.

And I am working on the assumption that you are writing your own game in AutoIt - if you have not already read the Forum rules to which I linked you above, please do so now as I will not be happy if it turns out that this not the case.
