Hello

Is there an event that triggers when a user selects a list item from a dialog item?

I need it so that when a user selects a list item, it will run through the list and pick the number for the list item that is selected.

Yes but it only works on a click, not a highlight (I think.) You want the Dialog Item Used event, with the option set to "clicked."

@BasharTeg: Go

I think changed selection would also work just set a default selection to the currently selected list item for each player at map initialization.

I am largely inactive, but I am still around. Feel free to poke me if you need some help, just be warned that I only really come back if I need help and/or if I'm posting a new map/library.

@BasharTeg: Go

const int c_triggerControlEventTypeMouseEnter = 6;
const int c_triggerControlEventTypeMouseExit = 7;

These can be used for any desired hover effect, though I don't think this pertain to the OP.

An example trigger for difficulty selection:

Difficulty pulldown menu used
    Events
        Dialog - Any Dialog Item is used by Player 1 with event type Changed Selection
    Local Variables
    Conditions
        (Used dialog item) == Difficulty (Pulldown menu)
    Actions
        General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
            If
                (Selected list item of Difficulty (Pulldown menu) for 1) == 1
            Then
                Game - Set the difficulty level of the next mission to Casual for (All players)
