Menu_Item through a campaign

[Geos]

I have a menu item defined in scenario 2 that is supposed to show a map when the user clicks. Then, at the end of the scenario, as I found no tag to delete it I just changed showing a message to inform the user that no map was available.
In latter scenarios, no message would show up.
Arriving to another scenario, the 7th, I wanted to show the user a new map so

Code: Select all

[set_menu_item]
	    id=showmap
	    description= _ "Show Map"
	    [command]
		[message]
                     speaker=narrator
                     image="Maps/TheThan.png"
                [/message]
	    [/command]
	 [/set_menu_item]

in the prestart event. But doesn't work. I take a look at the save file and I find

Code: Select all

[menu_item]
	id="showmap"
	description="Show Map"
	needs_select="no"
	[command]
		[message]
#textdomain 
			message=_ "No map available"
			speaker="narrator"
		[/message]
	[/command]
[/menu_item]

This is located at top level. This would follow the instructions given at the end of the scenario 2. I find also this

Code: Select all

[menu_item]
		description=_ "Show Map"
		id="showmap"
		needs_select="no"
		[command]
			[message]
				image="Maps/TheThan.png"
				speaker="narrator"
			[/message]
		[/command]
	[/menu_item]

twice in the scenario tags.

What is going on? What do I have to make a correct substitution of a Menu Item?

thank you

PD: Something that maybe a bug. When displaying messages, for the whole campaign it worked fine with

Code: Select all

[message]
  description=theunit
  message= _ "blabla"
[/message]

But in my last scenario would show another unit's portrait and name. I changed from "description" to "speaker" and it worked. ??

hmm.. that's not supposed to be possible to have two menu_item's with the same ID. try zip up your campaign and post it into a bug report.


by the way, to make it invisible, all you have to do is set the [show_if] to always be false...

Code: Select all

 [show_if]
  [not]
# never show
  [/not]
 [/show_if]

My campaign is too big.
I attach the two scenarios and the latest save file

If your campaign is too big for .zipping then obviously you can remove the big parts which are big images and music.

Well, I guess this makes a difference.
