Heya guys.

I've been tackling with a lot of different ideas and such, but I really think that there's a more efficent way to accomplish this than the way I do it, wich is far from good.

The thing I need to know is a good way of changing a string in the game when the player moves to another room. I've done the code for the string to fade in and out with the name of the current room. But as the player walks into another room, the string should fade in again, but obviously with different text.

For example, player is in the starting room, the string fades in with the text "Room One". As soon as the player walks out of the door abd into the next room, the string fades in again, but with the "Room Two" text.

Anyone have any idea?




Thanks a lot in advance!

1. low-poly invisible room field ENTITY, size and shape of room floor, but high enough for actor pass through, with collision enabled, and lower push than other objects?
2. room id skill for room field ENTITIES, assignable in editor, which is indexed to STRING array containing room texts?
3. in actor's action, on collision with room field ENTITY, pull room text from STRING array using room id skill of field ENTITY as index and display using draw_text?

I think I get your point, will try it out at once! Thanks a lot!
