Some tips for your gui

1.
make the buttons bitmap buttons and the image
base/client/ui/button1 or base/client/ui/button2
this is what most of the buttons in blockland use and will make it look nicer

2.
you also don't need all that extra space and can compact it a bit

3.
instead of a close button make the x close it out
you can do this by setting the window's closeCommand to pop the dialog

Thanks for the tips! I'll improve that. I also didn't know how to make the X button do something when I pressed it, I thought it was broken :P

EDIT: I improved the GUI, image is in the  attachment OP.

pencil's probably gonna start out really cool and then we're gonna turn him into an starfish


Wow! That's a really cool GUI!

Thanks. It is really easy and fun to do once you get to know how to use it :P

Looks great.

I would suggest that you center the words in the buttons and remove the expansion/contraction buttons (buttons with the up and down arrows) in the upper-right corner.  They would be unnecessary for this GUI.



You are the most feedback-accepting individual I've ever seen on these forums.  Keep that attitude!

you forgot to set the button's profile to 'blockButtonProfile' which makes them look much nicer, sorry I forgot to mention this

Alright, I'll do that tommorow, IDK if it's possible to remove those buttons thought.

I'll do that too. I was wondering why those buttons looked so weird :P

It is.

Jesus christ you are too good of a person to be playing this game. We are going to turn you into an starfish.

Does this look better? I removed those buttons and compacted some space, and improved the Mute etc. buttons

That looks much better! Though I would put the mute buttons on the player list for easy use (and some sort of mute manager where you can unmute muted people)

I don't really know how to list muted people (in this case, list .txt files in a folder) and then be able to select them and unmute them.

Also, I have another question. How can I target a player client-sidely, and get their basic info (BL_ID etc)? Is that even possible?
Nvm, got it
