ok I got it working fine.
thanks for the help

Good to hear!! Glad I could of at least been of some help to you!

yea you helped alot, I just motly worked with the code you gave me and the panel worked.
I found out how to make the mouse pointer disappear for anyone interested in making a panel.

I just put this

function startgame_function()
{
wait(1);
load_level(<mynewgame.wmb>);
start_game.visible = off;
main_pan.visible=off;
mouse_map=off;
mouse_mode=off;
}

both mouse_map and mouse_mode on off I did not put visible but just off and it worked.

doesn't the mouse_mode variable control that?
like:

mouse_mode = 1;

or something?

(I dunno, just thinking)
Hope this helps!

Best Regards, and be good!

lmao, I only read the first page in this thread and didn't see problem was already solved!
