Question by Tim.Holman · Jul 25, 2011 at 04:17 PM · cursorpausehideresume

How to hide cursor after pause menu resume

I've got a script that hides my mouse cursor until the pause menu is brought up. My problem is that once the player brings up the pause menu, then hits the "Resume" button, the cursor does not go away again. I assume there would be some command to say "if gui button "resume", Screen.showCursor = false;" However, I am not an experienced progammer. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Here's the code I currently have:

 private var showingCursor = false;
 
 function Start(){
     Screen.showCursor = false;
 }
 
 function Update(){
 
     //check if pause button (escape key) is pressed
     if(Input.GetKeyDown("escape")){
 
         //check if game is already paused       
         if(showingCursor == true){
         Screen.showCursor = false;
         showingCursor = false;
         Time.timeScale = 1;
         AudioListener.volume = 1;
         }
 
         //else if game isn't paused, then pause it
         else if(showingCursor == false){
         Screen.showCursor = true;
         showingCursor = true;
         Time.timeScale = 0;
         AudioListener.volume = 0;
         }
     }
 }

Try a built version of that level. I've noticed that the editor doesn't like taking the mouse back after you first release it.

I figured it out. Just needed to add the following line to my PauseMenuScript under the resume button command.

Screen.showCursor = false

Also had to modify a few other scripts to prevent the audio from playing during pause.

Simple as that!
