Wiki vgui_screen customization

[Xenogenetic]

I just spent 3 hours figuring out how the vgui_screen entity works. I decided to write a wiki on it incase I forgot.

Writing isn't my forte so if you have any questions you can ask them here.


:O I don't know if I should host the vgui_screens.txt and slightly modified docks_1d_U4lab_entrance.res file because thats almost piracy, if I need to change it please tell me.

ok, what exactly are you doing?

Are you making a screen that has those buttons like "extend bridge" or something? I'm on the verge of doing your tutorial to see what happens.

oh, and here is a simple tip for writting; tell the people what you are going to tell them, tell the people, then tell them what you told them.(Although, you can be creative with this too. Think of this saying not as a style of writing, but as a possibility)

Ya, those kind of screens, where you lower your weapon and press buttons.

EDIT: If all else fails look at the example I provided.
