OK, here is how you only have to press the Hud button once.
I'm not sure why this works, but it works, so after adding \ removing \ guessing - and more guessing I finally came up with this combination of functions.

Re: Scripting
OK I give up. When I start the scenario, the message screen loads. When I click the exit button, the screen closes but the hud doesn't come back. I'm sure I'm doing this wrong.
I'm uploading the mod and the scenario pack I use to test. I use the first scenario.
Thanks

Re: Scripting
I cannot test the scenario - I deleted some of my game files pertaining to them - never played any before.
Tested in Open Play (i.e...Sandbox Thing)
Fixed!
Press Hud - Press Exit. In this order!

Re: Scripting
If you talking about the one you just posted, that was the one I used. Didn't realize that was all I needed to do. I'll post a screenshot when I'm doneWhy not switch to the newer one - and then adjust the coordinates.

If that's not a famous quote, it should be.
Shouldn't the graphic have the Hud and Exit buttons on it for them to be drawn?

Re: Scripting
About the most unintuitive process I've had to go through in a while. But I got it. When I first started neither of the buttons would show up. I had to increase the size of the image in the gscreens file, Row 4, Column I (but not the image itself) before they would show up. I have a little more tweaking to do with the scroll bars and I'll post it for you to incorporate in the mod.The rest is on you.
Thanks for all the help.
If you'd like anything changed, let me know. I think the Message and the font look REALLY good.

Since the buttons do not change colors such as red when you click them, you can enter a 0 0 1024 1024.When I first started neither of the buttons would show up. I had to increase the size of the image in the gscreens file.

No, don't change anything that you don't like, that is your mod, I'm sticking with the larger font that I posted in the other topic.
