Just looking for inputs from writers here...
When you type into your textbox in the VN? How much limit do you impose yourselves on the textbox format? 100 words? 50 words?
Kindly share your experiences...

Re: Text Box format writing
Well, that depends on textbox image, if it is too small, then, small values. Resized images are bad.
The position also interfer: if it is near the character, then I need a small value, to don't hide the character with a textbox.
Well, you can download games and use “lint” on them, it will say more less how much them use.
I use 16.5 words per block and 97 characters (per block).
I used lint on my project to say it to you. I didn't imposed a limit, I just see if it is not too large. Well, except for the credits, of course

Re: Text Box format writing
Completely and utterly dependent upon the textbox, font, and size of font. If it doesn't fit in the textbox, I either adjust those settings until things work well or I just push it off on to another dialog line.
My common sense is tingling!
