Title: Get Room's Description [SOLVED]
Post by: Stranga on Sat 17/07/2021 11:40:50
Hello everyone,

I was wondering if there is a way to get the current room's description as a string without using a custom property. I'm making a custom save screen and would like to use what current room the player is in to display on the save slot in the load screen. I know I can do it with custom properties but want to see if there is a way to just grab it straight from the room's description. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

No, there's no way to get them in script atm, and also currently room names are not saved at all when game is compiled in Release mode.

One good solution imo is a custom property.

Bugger! Oh well, thanks for your help CW! Custom property it is! :)
