Consider adding an `X` button on the end-of-run panel #1805

What feature is your improvement idea related to?

Right now the only method (that I'm aware of) to close the end of run panel WITHOUT restarting to the beginning of the map is to press the esc button. While that lines up with conventional knowledge, it is not accessible via the mouse at all nor is it visually intuitive to most players.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add some sort of top-right X button on the end-of-run panel. Probably above / to the side of the little replay square button image

Describe alternatives you've considered, if any.

It should be possible to close simply by pressing tab, as it's part of the hud_leaderboards component. Have you tried this?

hexaflexahexagon commented 2 years ago

i have not and that does seem to work, though the above points about mouse navigation and visual intuitiveness are unchanged which were the primary reasons I figured such a feature may be worthwhile

tsa96 commented 2 years ago

I'm not totally against adding a close button, but I'd like to look into ways to teach the tab opening and closing behaviour, since it's much faster in practice. We'll put a label saying "press tab to toggle" in the UI in 0.9.2, will have a think about other improvements.

Tab menu / end of run / mouse capturing stuff definitely needs some adjusting. I don't think it's a matter of teaching, I think there's probably a better scheme we could be using that's just more intuitive.

What do you have in mind / what's wrong with current stuff?
