hi again! i finished up the rest of the menu stuff for Online Games.

this time i worked on the create game, join game, how to play, and back buttons. i made the create game button open the actual Dobble game scene and added the room code display at the top.

i also made a separate join game menu where you can enter a room code. the menu fades in when you open it and fades back out when you press the back button. i made the transitions work both ways so switching between the menus feels the same.

bugs and stuff fixed

• join game menu not showing when it was hidden
• join button not finding the room code input
• menus appearing instantly instead of fading
• menus not fading back in after going back
• button text changing color from the saved theme
• buttons having unwanted hover text effects
• create game button opening the wrong scene

i also cleaned up the button scripts so the animations and transitions are consistent between the different menus.

next i’m gonna start working on the actual Dobble game screen and then figure out how the room codes will work.
