How do I custom name

so for a game im working on im going to add a custom name, meaning it asks you your name and the characters call you that through out the game, how do i do that... could i for example say "hey 501389 how are you today??"

"you ok 501389" and then say change all instances of the word 501389 to the global variable "character.name?

if not please tell me how i could

Yes, you could do it with a global variable. You could ask the player to enter what name they would like, than save it as a global. Than on your text write like this "Hey! "&Variable1&"How are you today?"

Thanks!

how would i setup the name creation screen? for pc and android support

I never tried it, but I would think you can create a textbox, let the player enter what they want, than on the ok button, save it as the variable.

how to enable typing in that one textbox for the player tho?

anybody?

Use the textbox object, not the text object..
