String array?

[Novice]

I have a bunch of names in a string array

Code: Select all

strcpy(Name[0],"Tom");
strcpy(Name[1],"Sally");
...

on mouse up event a random name should be printed in a text actor

Code: Select all

strcpy(textActor.text,Name[RandNum]);

but the text actor just disapears, what am i doing wrong?TIA

May be RandNum it's the index for a empty string.
Make sure initialize all strings that you need.

Ok i made it work but i put the names in the create actor instead of global code.
