Hello,

I'm trying to make a message pop up only when two buttons are clicked at a time but the user is able to click all the buttons at once and all the text shows up on top of each other.  How do I make i so the user can only click 2 buttons at once.

Since all buttons are clicked the words just overlap each other.  The background is made up of many images so I can't redraw the background.  What should I do?

Below is my code:

Check check1, check2, check3, check4, check5, check6;
PFont font;
String s;
String s2 = "Christian Scriptures of Love";
String s3 = "Islamic Scripture of Love";
String s4 = "Buddism Scripture of Love";
String s5 = "Juddism Scripture of Love";
String s6 = "Christian Scripture of Hate";
String s7 = "Islamic Scripture of Hate";
String s8 = "Buddism Scripture of Hate";
String s9 = "Juddisim Scripture of Hate";

boolean state_1 = false; //hold value to display one state of the application
boolean state_2 = false; //hold value to display one state of the application

PImage sky2, sand2, water2, rocks2, singlerock;
float fuzzy = 0.0;
color yellow = color(220, 214, 41);
color green = color(110, 164, 32);
color other = color(141,161, 188);
color blue = color (83, 129, 201);
color brown = color (57, 54, 27);



void setup(){
size(504, 660);

 singlerock = loadImage ("singlerock.gif");
 water2 = loadImage ("water2.gif");
 sky2 = loadImage("sky2.gif");
 rocks2 = loadImage("rocks2.gif");
 sand2 = loadImage("sand2.gif");
 
 image(singlerock, 0, -60);
 image(water2, 0, -60);
 image(rocks2, 0, -60);
 image(sand2, 0,-60);
 image(sky2, 0, -60);
 
     
  if (fuzzy < 5.0) {
   fuzzy += 0.15;
  }
 
  tint(blue);
  image(water2, 0, -60);
  filter(BLUR, fuzzy);

// s2 = "HATE";

}

 fill(0);
 text(s, 100, 75, 100, 100);
 //text(s2, 375, 75, 175, 150);
 println(state_1);

 
 check1.display();

      if(check1.checked == true && check6.checked == true)
 {
   state_1 = true;
   //s = "Juddism";
   text(s5,150, 300, 300, 400);
 }
 
 
   if(check2.checked == true && check3.checked == true)

 }
 
  if(check2.checked == true && check4.checked == true)

    text(s7,150, 300, 300, 400);
 
 }

   //s = "Buddisim";
    text(s8,150, 300, 300, 400);
 
 }
 
  if(check2.checked == true && check6.checked == true)
 {
   state_1 = true;
   //s = "Juddism";
    text(s9,150, 300, 300, 400);

 }
 

   

}

Thanks!

I just tried that and the previous text still appears.
