Lua for MA3 Custom UI Elements Pt 3 - A Streamlined Method
This is the final video in my series on coding your own custom UI elements, or pop-ups for the user interface, in GrandMA3 using Lua. At this point, I'm assuming you know how to build a custom UI element, so I'm going to show you how to make a streamlined function to make your custom UI element easily reusable in different ways! It will function (pun intended) similarly to MessageBox(), where you put in information to customize it differently each time you use it. But now you've built it to do whatever YOU want, accept information however you've decided, and you can change it at will if you decide it should be different!
