What’s the cause of this?

I am testing what I have, and there’s a major problem.

I am trying to see why ANY exit is not working. For instance, if I try to click on the exit for the upper level of the Pet Store, it doesn’t do anything. Same for if I try to click on the exit for getting out of the store.


Do the exits work if you type their names? Is it the exits that are broken or just the links?

This is the kind of problem that we probably can't help without seeing the game.


They don’t work, even if I type their exit names.


OK, what happens when you try it? Is there any kind of error message?

There's so many things it could be. You are unlikely to get any help without sharing the game, or the relevant part of it.


Literally nothing happens.


First things that come to mind are a room-exit or enter script going into an infinite loop, or the exit having a script that does nothing.

Or, if you're testing the game online, it could be a connection issue; but that would be likely to stop other commands working as well.

After you enter the command and it does nothing, does that stop other commands from working?


No, other commands work. For instance, I can still use the phone in the game to get the player to text / call their ride, for instance.


In that case all I can think of is that the exit's destination is set to the same room, or the exit has a script that doesn't do anything.

If that doesn't solve your problem, you need to show the game.


Mmm'kay... I have isolated the problem. Somewhere in the Script is a Menu, and, for some reason, I HAVE to allow the player to ignore the Menu. If I don't allow the player to ignore the Menu, it creates the issue.


Yes, if you don't allow the player to ignore a menu it will be waiting for a menu response and not a command. Although in that case, it shouldn't allow you to execute other commands either.


Hm. I see. As mentioned in earlier threads, I am still rather new to Quest, so, I appreciate the patience and help.
