So how can i store the written text in a varaiable
I’m assuming that the prompt will save the response that the person types into it.
Yes thank you i figured it out .
Hey how do I make it so it does a specific thing based on what you entered?
If you have the input stored in a variable check it’s value and execute an action in response
if( inputValue === 'Go to end level'){
// e.g. fire an event
this.app.fire('change:level:endLevel');
}

I tried it and it does the same thing no matter what I enter
How is your set up? What do you use to get the text input of the user?
I mis worded it sorry it works as in it only fire when I input one of my commands but it also fires when I enter any of the other commands
HERE is my code
There is a typo in the loadScene of the ‘public’ part. Also you do the same in both parts. So where do you change the sceneName?
I have it as sconeName so that it doesn’t load the same scene
I think your current setup is incorrect. Try to replace your script with the script below. (Don’t forget to back-up your own script somewhere).
var Ui2 = pc.createScript('ui2');
// initialize code called once per entity
Ui2.prototype.initialize = function() {
var input = prompt("Enter MATCH CODE ");
if (input === 'TEST') {
var self = this;
setTimeout(function (){
self.loadScene('TEST');
}, 0.1);
}
if (input === 'PUBLIC') {
setTimeout(function (){
self.loadScene('BR ISLAND');
}, 0.1);
}
};
// update code called every frame
Ui2.prototype.loadScene = function (sceneName) {
// Get a reference to the scene's root object
var oldHierarchy = this.app.root.findByName ('Root');
// Get the path to the scene
var scene = this.app.scenes.find(sceneName);
// Load the scenes entity hierarchy
this.app.scenes.loadSceneHierarchy(scene.url, function (err, parent) {
if (!err) {
oldHierarchy.destroy();
} else {
console.error(err);
}
});
};
The Test Command Is Working Great But The Public Command Is Not

Can I see your project please?
I don’t see anything wrong. Can you try to load a different scene?
ok
Same error
I see what is the problem. Your variable self is not defined in the second setTimeout. An alternative for your ‘self solution’ is the way below.
setTimeout(function(){
this.loadScene('TEST');
}.bind(this), 1);

is there anyway I could do this in an actual text box instead of a prompt?
