Hi. I have a quick question about using quotes in a dialogue on the textbox.
Obviously you do it like this:
But, what if I want to add something after that? Like a reaction the character does like so:
Code: Select all
"\"Bla, bla, bla.\"" Tom says in a strict tone.
How can I have them both appear on the same textbox, but one to be in full quotes " " and the other one without any quotes? Is this possible? Thanks.

First of all: you can use single quotes to avoid need for escaping. Second: what exactly is wrong with this:
' "Bla, bla, bla." Tom says in a strict tone.'

I figured it out. For anyone curious this worked:
Code: Select all
"\"Bla, bla, bla.\"\nTom says in a strict tone."

I did not know that. Thank you again, haha.
