Problem description:

I'm simply looking for a way to make a main page, with options that players can click so they can start the game.

Start

Load

Erase

With the background image of course, etc. If there is a tutorial on BYOND, could you link me? I've been searching, and I can't find one.

Define a /area, /obj, etc.

Key thing here is that you MUST:
  • let this object be invisible (so it does not cover up the image)
  • ideally the layer would be higher than normal (ex: layer = 5)
  • define mouse_opacity = 2 (IMPORTANT!)
    This causes your mouse to 'see' this object even though it is transparent which is what we want!
  • Define Click() to call the appropriate function
  • Rename the object's name and text icon macro (as they will appear when the mouse hovers over the icon or the person goes to the text map view)

Ah, awesome. Thank you for answering!
Could you provide a small example perhaps? I'm still very new to all of this, but I'll do my best to work with what you show me :D Thank you!
