You have to use strcpy, which takes the contents of the second string and copies it to the first string. So, if you have a string variable named globalStringVariable, and a text actor named textActorName, this would copy the text actor's text into the variable.
Code: Select all
strcpy(globalStringVariable, textActorName.text);


-Edit
And to answer the question you had that you deleted, you can use the atoi or atof function. It converts a string into an integer/float.
