Editing Name Labels in History Screen
Posted: Tue Mar 01, 2022 12:26 pm
I have a character in my game who gets referred to as "Mysterious Woman" until the player eventually learns her real name, and that phrase is a bit too long to fit in the name label style the way that I have it set up for all the other characters. So for the name label in the dialogue box, I've edited the way that her name appears by adding some code to the namebox window underneath the following:
That works perfectly so far. So I tried to edit the history screen in the same way, with the following code:
At first I thought I had totally figured it out, because I got it looking like this:
Exactly what I want! But then I realized that if I try looking at the history screen again once some other character has had dialogue after her, that text I added in place of her default namebox has disappeared. I hadn't considered that since the variable is called "_last_say_who", it will only show up if she was the last character to talk. Does anyone know if there's a different variable I can put in its place to change it for every time her name shows up in the history screen, or another way to handle editing names on that screen specifically? Thanks!
