FlxTypeText Callback

Bas Benjamins

Another Question about my project.

im Using the FlxTypeText Class FlxTypeText

/*
 * This function calls requestText(), adds the Tutorial array and starts the animation
 * at the end increases the textstate by 1.
 * */
public function StartText():Void
{		
	requestText();// Calling the function that gets the text from the Sqlite DataBase				
	add(tutorialArray[textState]);
	tutorialArray[textState]._text.start(0.05, false, true,keysArray,StartText);		//TODO: Fix it that after the first text is erased start the next one. 
	
	textState ++;
	
}

If i run the project now the next Text Starts already before the first one gets erased + it keeps adding text on the screen. ( i only have 4 different texts in my database but after the last one is done the first one starts again).

Is there a way to add the next text after the first text is erased completly?

Thanks in Advance!

If I understand your problem correctly, try adding a function EraseText() which is the callback from the FlxTypeText start function. In this function use FlxTypeText erase with StartText as it's callback function.

I ran into a similar problem during my last LD jam .. where I had to show next typeaText only after the last one was completed .. so here is how I did it. if you want you can check the game source code from here

public function updateChoice(i:Int)
	{
		if(i ==  choices.length)
		{
			return;
		}
		choices[i].start(0.04, true, false, null,updateChoice.bind(i+1));
	}
