I’m not sure why the buttons are not reacting to my clicking. It was fine before I added the background but now, the buttons don’t react to the clicking. Screenshot below:
The nodes are organized below:
I have the nodes arranged to where the “cargo_loading” is placed on top of the world map. If the player wants to load cargo, the “cargo_loading” node’s visibility is made true.
Hi brian,
if the only thing you were changing since it last worked was the background, then it might be the background which overlays your buttons now. A fast check could be to drag-drop one of the buttons onto the background node and see if it can be interacted with now. Like so:
(good)
Note: this should make the button visible, even though it has a lower z-level than what covers it.
If this doesn’t yield any results, you should ask yourself if you touched any of the z-level properties. The item with the higher z-level will be on top of the others. Therefore setting a button to a very high z-level should put it on top (high z-level for Button = good). You could try this and see if one of the buttons can be interacted with.
If the button and the thing which covers it have the same z-level you want the button to be lower in your scene tree than the thing which covers it for it to be on top. Like so:
(good)
If the z-level is the same, but the button is higher than the covering element the button might be inaccessible (see below).
(bad)
I hope this can help you debug the accessibility of your user-interface button.
Kind regards 
The solution shouldn’t be your post,instead it should be @kraasch 's post
