Tutorial problem.

[chicoplaya]

What's up guys? I'm working on a Newgrounds project, however I don't know any language that newgrounds supports. And I heard that Flixel is a good option to start.

I'm taking the dungeon crawler tutorial. And when I have to make the button, and run it, I just get a black screen. What's wrong? Here is my source code. Am I missing something?

package;

import flixel.FlxState;
import flixel.ui.FlxButton;
import flixel.FlxG;
import flixel.FlxSprite;
import flixel.text.FlxText;
import flixel.FlxGame;

class MenuState extends FlxState{
	
	private var _btnPlay:FlxButton;
	
	private function clickPlay():Void {
		FlxG.switchState(new PlayState());
	}
	
	override public function create():Void{
		_btnPlay = new FlxButton(0, 0, "Play", clickPlay);
		add(_btnPlay);
		_btnPlay.screenCenter();
		super.create();
	}

	override public function update(elapsed:Float):Void {
		super.update(elapsed);
	}	
}

The initial state has been changed to PlayState. However, you can easily change it in your Main.hx.

super.create(); has to be the first line on the create function.

@agustín-pérez-fernández Actually, it need not to.
As super.create() is just an empty function. I choose to remove it entirely.

@dleanjeans Note that that's only true for the default FlxState. If you're using flixel-ui / FlxUIState and not calling super.create(), you're in for a surprise. ;)

@gama11 True! Took me a while to find out why things didn't work :P
