GE included all libraries...so you have no need to include them...
Just write your code down without including library... :D

cout stands for console output. Meaning the screen. cin is console input, meaning the keyboard.

Since GE is purely graphical, cout and cin dont make a lot of sense. Keyboard input is handled differently too. Thus, there is no cout in GE.

Like FUZZY said, GE is not console based C/C++
Look at the documentation>Scripting>Script reference for most of the available functions.
it's available in the help menu

@trip : if you are looking to output text onto your app, you need a text actor.

Check the documentation on how to add actors http://game-editor.com/docs/gettingstar ... lpanel.htm

From there it's like bee-ant said (strcpy....)

Check this for some info on long text http://game-editor.com/forum/viewtopic. ... rpg+dialog

Check the script reference for what else you can do with functions built into GE http://game-editor.com/docs/script_reference.htm
