I can't figure out a way to have the player type in some text and to have an action occur depending on the text typed. I have found that you can type in the edit text obj. but I can't find a way to have the text read after pressing enter. Anyone know of a way?
It's tricky. When I have to do it I sometimes send it to an extension that allows you to test a string (even if that's not the point of the extension, like the Asker Box I think) and compare that.
Whatever solution you find is going to be pretty convoluted. I can't think of a simple way to do it. I think once I used the string parser to convert all the characters to ASCII code and then tested it with 'compare two general values.'
...I guess if someone does know an easy way I'd like a clue too.
well that was a simple idea... it works for things like cheat codes too!
