I want it to say something like

Only you, [Characters name here], can stop [something I'll think up later..]

How would I do the characters name here bit?


And, any idea how I change the back key? I want to use backspace rather than esc..

\n[a], where a is the ID of the actor.

So:

Text: Only you, \n[1], can go about ...

will become in game (if the name of the first actor hasn't been changed):

Text: Only you, Ralph, can go about...
The Help file contains all of this information

Thanks modern, that'd work even if they had changed their character's name in a prevous event, too?

[Edit]
Apologies, I'll find and read the helpfile thoroughly. Thanks for informing me it existed, lol. I'm not one to look for instructions, I usually just experiment.
