Title: RM2K3 Question
Post by: RedKnight on May 12, 2007, 01:11:35 AM
OK. Suppose at the Start of the game, I want the Character's Name to be listed as "??????" or something like that. Then, during an Event, I want to rename him. Well, when I'm making an Event and entering a Message, what do I type so that it shows whatever name the player chose for the character?

For example, if you wanted to display the name of the 1st Hero in the database (default: Zack), then you would type \n[1] in the message box. If you want to display the name of the 2nd Hero in the database (by default, Albert), then \n[2] would display the name. If you change the name in an event, then it will display the name you changed it to.
