How do I work with text?

Hello,

I am creating an educational game which will require me to work with a lot of texts, including copy&pastes from Word.

What would be the best way/plugin to use and format a good amount of text?

thanks

Well obviously the text plugin. It allows formatting with bbcode (https://www.construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/how-do-i-8/bbcode-text-formatting-feature-134131)

As for how you gotta format it, you either do it by hand or find a nice way to format it automatically.

You can also use project files to efficiently store and load large amounts of text.

Thanks guys,

as I see I think I'll have to update to Construct3.

I've been working with other software to create educational materials, but I really like Construct and was thinking to use it for educational games that may require quite a lot of text. But when I worked in my own creations in C2 I realized that typing in the text field below 'Properties' was really slow, as well as was formatting the text.

You can use the:

construct.net/en/make-games/addons/190/html-element

plugin and format the text as HTML.
