Printing Characters Display Name in String?
I'm feeling quite stupid at the moment.
I've set up a few characters with a shorthand Name ID and then a more descriptive Display Name using the character options in the Config panel.
For Example character ID "A" then with a display name "Alice", and character ID MC (main character) would be inputted by the player using: @input MC summary:"Choose your name."
The label Name "A" works (shows the name) but when I try to use {A} in the text string it doesn't work.
MC: Home sweet home!
@char A
A: Why hello {MC}!
Player: Hi {A}, it's good to see you after so long... you're looking well!
A: You too {MC}
I guess I'm not declaring the variables correctly? or at all? I'm assuming this was done via the config panel?
Can anyone give me a example of how to set character display names up and use them in a string output?
For example in Renpy I would do something like:
define MC = Character("Joe")
define A = Character("Alice")
Then to output the variables in a string:
MC "Hello [A]! How are you doing?"
A "I'm fine [MC], thanks for asking."
I've looked through the docs but cannot see anything about using character names variable in a string?
Please someone put me out of my misery!
Cheers!
