How to get user to enter a password to leave a screen?

Hi,
I want to have a "home" icon which when pressed at any screen
prompts the user for a password that takes him back to the
menu.
Thanks.

Use the Keyboard Input behavior and check its attribute against a set password.

HI I'm new to GS, could you please elaborate a little on how to do this?
Thanks so much.

Sure. Create two text attributes called game.input and game.lastInput.

When Touch is Pressed
     Keyboard Input [attribute: game.input]

When attribute game.input is not game.lastInput
     When attribute game.input is "ThePassword"
          Change Scene [menu scene]
     Change attribute game.lastInput to game.input

Note: The second rule above checks to see if the keyboard input has changed since the last time the actor was clicked/tapped.

I don't understand what value the attribute game.lastInput should be given?

Oops, sorry about that! I edited the post above to include the correct behavior.

Hi,
I have a game with a limited free time with an option to pay to upgrade to the full
version. Can I list this as free in Google Play or do I have to list it as a paid
package?
Thanks.
