Re: dynamic character questions

Short answer, yes. As I said earlier, "Since it's a dynamic character, the name should be a piece of python code that results in a string." That means we can *also* put in a function for the name, as long as it returns a string. (Honestly we could also do a lambda but we won't mess with t...

I'm not sure if I'm not looking it up right, or if this hasn't been dealt with before but here goes. What I'm attempting to do is have a line of text that works as an alert or a pop up du...
