Hey, got another question:
If I type this into a script:
DisplaySpeechBackground (MAN, "Hey, why don’t you talk to me?");
(the example taken from the tutorial) the game would crash saying there are too many overlays... any idea how to solve it?
Bye!
Did you put the code ’ there, or was it the actual ' symbol? If so, just use the regular keyboard ' symbol, unless you are using a TTF font or a font that supports advanced characters.
It doesn't matter, on the actual game I wrote my own line of text, which had nothing to do with freaky symbols or fonts.... just something like "Grr... I gonna kill that guy". and it gave me errors!!
Did you put this in repeatedly execute? That would mean that this come up every 60th of a second, meaning that it would be on the screen too many times.
Again I'm afraid the answer is NO.
I put it after entering the room.
Could you post the whole player enters room script then?
But still, check both global and room repeatedly executes and see if there are any DisplaySpeechBackgrounds there.
