Title: Calling Actors Name Inside a Textbox[Solved]
Post by: tommo92 on February 04, 2011, 11:15:11 AM

i have it set up so the play can pick from a list of names and then it will default the actor to that name
now i want a text box to say "well <players name> we better get moving then" i have not been able to work out how to do this or find any script to do it for me

 in the text box type \N[X]
where X is the actor ID
eg.
hi my name is \N[1]!
this is my friend \N[2]!

PS:you can use the name input processing instead of having the player
choose a name

It's \n[1]

Replace 1 with the actor ID number of the actor. Should work perfectly fine.
