Arcade Story Bug

Hi @richard, I’m trying to use the arcade-story extension in a game to give the player questions. I"'ve run into a bug where everything breaks if you press Menu while the arcade-story show_player_choices block is open. Is there a fix for this? Here is the program I’ve been using to test: https://arcade.makecode.com/S08663-34911-35527-66397

Thanks!

@Mastermind hmmm… i’ll have to think about how to fix that one. in the meantime, you can disable the pause menu by putting an “on menu button pressed” block in your project.

Great thanks! I have disabled the menu, and once the show_player_choices block is closed, I have a note to reset the game to access the menu. The show_player_choices block ended up being pretty finicky. That might have been because of how I was using it with cutscenes but I’m not sure.

@Mastermind you might find riknoll/arcade-mini-menu less buggy for showing choices to players. I wrote the story extension a long time ago; mini-menu is much more up to date

the api is more complicated though.

Thanks for the recommendation, but I wasn’t able to use it because I wanted to be able to show a long piece of text at the same time. If I could figure out how to use arcade-mini-menu that would be much better.
