Custom names typing system
The casual Event-Making's command to enter a name is, not quite handy, but also not customizable at all. The purpose of this little tutorial is to show a simple way of building a customized typing system, using text fields.
In order to completely understand how text fields work, we are inviting you to read the documentation of available commands here: Text fields' documentation
Firstly, we suppose that a character is asking our name.
- We display an introduction's message
- We retrieve the name of the hero n°1
- We display the text field
- We activate it
- We loop:
* until the key
enterhas been pressed - Once outside the loop
- We retrieve the text field's content
- We delete the text field
- We assign the retrieved name as the new hero's name
- END !
The code does not need any further details, the first script's call use a little bit of arithmetic to correctly place the text field on the screen.
Here is a little example :)
ET VOILA :dance:
