[SOLVED] Character name in text label question

[shaun9991]

Hi guys,

Another question, any help much appreciated. I've created a custom gui system for displaying speech text at the top of the screen. This has been done by creating a gui with two labels, one for the name of the character, and one for the actual speech.

Code: ags

void Saying(this Character*, String message) {
  lSaying.Text = message;
  gSaying.Visible = true;
  //// lNameofSpeaker = ???
  lSaying.TextColor = 65535;
  this.Say(message); 
  gSaying.Visible = false;
}

My question is, can I insert some code here which will dynamically change the label text of 'lNameofSpeaker' to the Name of the character who is talking at the time?

Any help much appreciated,

Thanks,
Shaun

lNameofSpeaker.Text = this.Name; should do the trick.
