I am making a save function for my game, and I want to use the string object to display save stats. How do I add a line break when setting alternable string in the event editor?

You could make a String Object with only a line break in it, then use "Alterable string of "Line break string" in the event editor to get a line break.
I know this is a stupid way to do it, but it's the only way to get a line break :|

or you could copy-paste a line break from another string with one in.

Or press Control + Enter. This works for string object, but not for edit objects.
Edit: By the way, how do you put a linebreak in an edit object? I tried Newline$ and pressing control and enter, but they just input 2 squares. Edited by the Author.

Noodle: two lines means linebreak in "TGF/MMF language"
just check you've got "multiline" checked in the edit objects properties, like joe said.

As the phizzy said the expression is "Newline$", from what i know it only works in MMF 1.5 .
so you might go: Set Edit text to --> "2pac 4 life" + "Newline$" + "Westside!!!"
