Resource for a chat log or text buffer?

by Laralyn McWilliams · in Torque Game Builder · 05/09/2010 (5:00 pm) · 3 replies

Are there any resources available for a chat log or text buffer? I'll be delivering some info to the player via text, and I'd like a scrolling log/buffer for that text. I figured I would check to see if that already exists before I try to roll my own. :-)

Thanks!

That would be a string array.

@GGirl... Do you mean scrolling like having scroll bars or scrolling like the beginning of Star Wars?

The former: guiMLTextCtrl

The later: Something like this with guiMLTextCtrl.

The former (scroll bars). I think those two bits of info are just what I needed: guiMLTextCtrl to display the text and a string array for the buffer. Thanks!
