Well not sure about in 2k3, but I do know in XP that you can right click and put in a large amount of text that will simply go into another window at one point.

i think you misunderstand lets say when a hero talks to a pig the pig says:

oink i like bacon and eggs do you?

some of the message will be cut off:

oink i like bacon and eg

no matter how many lines i use

so i have to make a new line at a certain point im trying to find out what that point is

no no still i dont think your with me:

the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog
the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog
the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog
the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog

it doesnt matter about how many lines i know when ive types enough line for one message. whats wrong is the <------width-------> of the message

in the actual gameplay afer a certain width of characters on any line it misses the next characters.

the quick brown fox jumped over the la
the quick brown fox jumped over the la
the quick brown fox jumped over the la
the quick brown fox jumped over the la
