Try this:

Code: Select all

if (strncmp(HUD_text.text, "hello",5) == 0)
{
    VisibilityState("Event Actor", DONT_DRAW_ONLY);
}

@ Metal_pt: Thats just the same code

@ Oman: You to set it to "DONT_DRAW" because when you set it to "DONT_DRAW_ONLY" there is a bug that happens, and it still shows the text.

i cant set it to Dont draw... it needs to keep reciaving events..

oh... nvm... thank you game a gogo

ok, i got that... now how do i make the text change colors.

(like in the demo version it says "made with game editor", i want to make it change colors like that.)

[Oman]

actually i found that out to... i used this code...

Code: Select all

int rcolor;
int gcolor;
int bcolor;
rcolor = rand(255);
gcolor = rand(255);
bcolor = rand(255);
r = rcolor;
g = gcolor;
b = bcolor;


i seem to be answering my own questions

actually, you could do the same thing whit out declaring a variable.

Code: Select all

r=rand(255);
b=rand(255);
g=rand(255);


and for making somewhat smooth movement:

Code: Select all

r=cos(i);
b=sin(i);
g=sin(i*3);
i+=.05;

remember to create the var inside the variable thingy, since somehow, it doesnt do it when it is declared inside the code. and make it a "real"
