Description (last modified by jo)

Outline

menu screenshot The menu welcomes the player and is displayed when pressing 'ESC'. This ticket is the implementation of the concept from ticket #250.

Starting point

There is a very simple example in the media repository (media/gui/scripts) that demonstrates how you could script a menu.
This however is only side: You will also need to design new looks if you have the time. Otherwise use the default and create GUI sheets (the actual pages for the user).
Improve the usability of the menu, extend where needed and add new features.

Goal

  1. A menu that is providing an easy to use 'workflow'. A user want's to chose:
    • single player or multiplayer?
    • which gametype ?
    • what specific options ? (each gametype has got so called 'configvalues' which enable the user to change the gametype's behaviour)
    • which level ?
  2. A tidy menu which does not confuse the user.
  3. A wonderful looking menu :D

Additional Improvements

  • Display a menu when the gametype ends.
  • Display preview images of the levels.

  • Owner cbueri deleted

cbueri has created quite a lot of menus, but there is still some functionality missing:

  • Multiplayer settings
  • Gameplay

maybe we could also create further menus and extend the existing ones
