Anywho, I've been modifying saguaro's basic messaging script to try and create a little phone thing. I've also snagged some things from Nadia Nova's mobile phone script, such as modifying the phone graphic provided (which is from Cute Demon Crashers? I played that game, I do not remember a phone, but also I'm dumb).
What I'm trying to do, is, basically, have a list of contacts. You select one of the names, and your entire conversation pops up and you can scroll through it. I've gotten it where a single message will pop up when clicking the contacts, but that's not how texts work, is it?
There should be a back and forth, with history you can scroll back through. So, basically, you have one box that's in a bubble from the contact, and then another box in a different bubble from the PC. A left/right thing like it would be in a real phone.
I know Nadia's works by having this defined by two different screens for incoming vs outgoing texts. I don't want to do that, because I want there to be a history - so when you click it, you see all previous messages (or you can, if you scroll). But instead of having it clumped together, it's appropriately spaced out. The one thing I 'get' how to do is adding a label of the name - create a variable of 'contact name' (or something appropriately named) and have that be the vbox label, although I'm not sure how to make it work similar to the way messages work...
Anyone who could help me with this would be greatly appreciated.
I actually solved one problem I had while typing this up, but I just... have no idea what to do with this or how to get it working.
You ready for super messy code? I have things roughly labeled, but there are some unused things in there and it's just... not organized, yet. (Like I want to further divide saguaro's code up with comments... LOOK, I've done the whole game of 'NO COMMENTS EVER' and it sucks. Everything is commented now).
Code: Select all
