Question about Text-advancing

[Guest]

I have a piece of text displayed and use autoadvance {nw} to automatically call the next event (e.g. an image appears). However, I now want the text to stay as it is until the next click (normally, the next piece of text already appears)

In short, what I want to achieve is: Text1 displays --> Image displays automatically --> Text1 is still there (until the user clicks again)

(PS: Also, is there a simple "wait for user click" function?)

Thanks for your time!

Er...I don't really get what you mean but try this code:

Code: Select all

init:
    image blue=Solid('#0f0')
label start:
    "This is Text 1: The world is spherical and it's plagued by global warming{nw}"
    show blue
    "This is Text 1: The world is spherical and it's plagued by global warming{fast}"

alternatively, you can substitute this instead of typing in the second line:

Code: Select all

    extend ""

this results in:

Code: Select all

init:
    image blue=Solid('#0f0')
label start:
    "This is Text 1: The world is spherical and it's plagued by global warming{nw}"
    show blue
    extend ""

note that, ideally, you would have the text be appearing at a relatively slow CPS (Character-Per-Second), otherwise you won't see much of an effect.

(extend is a special "character" that adds on to the previous say command or [if given a null string like in the code above] keeps the previous say command exactly as it is)

Thanks a lot! Will try that right away
