At this point, I almost want to make a general 'vorebane needs help with simple things' thread.

I want to have various notes laying around saying long winded things. However, the '\n' the reference suggests doesn't work for me. Is \n supposed to be a script specific thing? I will have to rejigger a lot of things in that case.

Multiple-line strings, there you go (snippet from my dungeon):

Code: Select all

local message = spawn("scroll")
message:setScrollText([[
	The First Circle
	
	Four shrines, four elements.
	Study them carefully, master their essence.
	]])

This will work, but I was hoping for something that would let me use notes and not mess about with scripting. Ah well. Off to converting everything!

You can use "Enter" and "Spacebar" just like wall text

You can stagger the 4 lines of text this way if u like!:)
