I need help with an idea for creating a text window in my rpg. Lets say you right click on a npc in the game.
1)The text panel will pop up, where you will interact with the npc and the strings of text will show up.
2)each line of text will appear consecutively one after the other until there is 10 lines total, newest line always being below the previous.
3)the eleventh line will reset the first line and the eleventh line will become the 10th line, etc... the eleventh line will always become the 10 th line and the text window will always have 10 lines of text so that the player can review the last 10 lines of chat. The 10 th line will always be the latest line of text. does anyone have an idea how to start doing something like this? Sure could use some professional help here, please. Here is pic of my text window in game.
