Visions, visions.. what's the matter with you?

What's wrong with the visions?, they don't seem to work with me. Do you need to do something else than just write &vision = 1; into your c.script when you want to change it??

Visions have to be defined in the base script of a screen. So if you have a script called base.c, and attach it to a screen, you would set &vision = 1; and it should show everything with Vision 1 that you created in the editor.

Also, the value of &vision doesn't stay, so if you have multiple screens with Vision-ed sprites, you have to set &vision to every screen's base script.

Also, you have to redraw the screen if you call a vision if the screen is allready loaded past main();

Just do this;

fade_down(); //make screen dark, don't use unless you want the screen to turn dark first

vision = 1;

draw_screen(); //redraw the screen

draw_status(); //redraw the status bar

fade_up(); //fade up the screen to normal use only if you use fade_down() first.
