Hi community
I get this weird error as it worked before (see image).
Protected download
and when I change this "addChild" outside the update functions it works, but this part worked before.
I do not know why it doesn't work now, while it worked previousely.
Another not what is weird that the text starts BLACK as all text start of WHITE, this is only the first
line of text popping up.
as updateOpen does NOT exist in the window_Message, I needed to create that function in order
to work it correctly with it's name showing.
Otherwise, it shows up before the window was open.
does anyone knows a fix for this and why it happends?
EDIT:
As for the type error, I made 2 additional checks to get rid of it, but I dont
understand why the black text is given somehow as nowhere is set this part.

JavaScript:
Window_Message.prototype.createMessageBoxName = function(name) {
this._tBoxName = new Window_MessageBoxName(name);
this.updateOpen();
//this.addChild(this._tBoxName);
};
Window_Message.prototype.updateOpen = function() {
if (this._opening) {
this.openness += 32;
if (this.isOpen()) {
this._opening = false;
this.addChild(this._tBoxName);
}
}
};I do not know why it doesn't work now, while it worked previousely.
