:stuck_out_tongue: sorry, since that line didn’t seem to work but calling it from another script it does work i just added an if statement and solved my problem …deepest apologizes

ok seems my solution was not doable so i post here the function and how i call it

closeShop: function(){
    this.isOpen = false;
    this.clear();
    this.shopDiv.classList.remove(this.shopOpenClass);
},

called by this.closeShop()

ps this is the project https://playcanvas.com/editor/scene/396696 and the script is Shop.js

This appears to be another misunderstanding of the ‘this’ keyword.

You call closeShop like this:

            r.click(function(){
                this.closeShop();
            });

It should either be:

            r.click(function(){
                this.closeShop();
            }.bind(this));

Or:

            var self = this;
            r.click(function(){
                self.closeShop();
            });

The latter is a bit more optimal.
