Hello, I need some advice. In the game I am working on at the moment I would like the character to be able to look at a computer screen and look in different files for clues. I'm not sure what the best way to implement that would be. So far I've thought of making a parallax map of the computer screen and turning the character sprite into a mouse-pointer to move about the screen. Then they could "click" on event squares representing the different files. This does seem a bit clunky though, and I was wondering if there is a better way.

Any tips gratefully received.
