Pause game, display multiple choice popup with images

Hi everybody!

I'd like to do the following, but I haven't figured out how yet:

• when the player runs out of ammo, the game pauses
• a pop-up appears, the player must answer a question to get more ammo
• he has to choose an answer based on a picture.
• when he validates his choice, the game resumes.

As there are several questions, i want to do it dynamically so i can iterate on an array or something and the questions and images displayed in the box are updated. For the moment, I can use the array object very effectiveley to store and retrieve the text.

Here's what i tried so far:

• using the List and ImageList objects to display the choices : problem i cant get the list to display my images.

So if you have any ideas, please leave a note !

do you have a cap? this sounds like something that should be easy with variables. you should be able to view images (sprites) easy.

+ Ammo equals 0

Set Timescale to 0 (this pauses the game)

Pop the dialog box (you'll have to write events for that yourself, normally it is enough to pop a Panel object and draw text on top, with some pictures)

++ Answer is correct (condition to check whether the player answered correctly)

> Set Ammo to 100

> Set Timescale to 1 (this resumes the game at normal speed)

> Destroy dialog box (a little cleanup)

++ Answer is incorrect

> Ridicule the player (next time Ammo will still be 0, so another dialog box will appear)

> Destroy dialog box

In a nutshell.
