How to show text at a certain point? - Strembitsky - 02-04-2012
Hey, I just started attempting making a custom story, and I want to know how I can make some text show at the beginning, without having to click anything.
I want some white text to show in the middle of the screen saying "Run and hide!"
Thanks for help.
Nevermind, I figured it out. I guess the best way to learn is to mess with it, alot.

Set up trigger if you know how, then use that code:
SetMessage("Category Name", "EntryName", 0);
that 0 is lenght. If it is 0, then it will calculate itself, depending how long ur text is.
Then inside extra_english put inside other stuff:
<CATEGORY Name="Category Name">
<Entry Name="EntryName">Text here!</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
