Hello fellow RPG-Makers,
I have a costum menu and want to display item descriptions.
The drawText method will not suffice, because I need new lines and changing of textcolor.
Is there an easier way for me to display a costum text, than writing my own text interpreter code?
For example:
Item description in RPG Maker:
"This is a really cool [changeColor] item [\changeColor]. \n \n Additional information about this item."
Item description in-game:
"This is a really cool item.
Additional information about this item."
Am I missing a function, the game already uses for such tasks? I know you can change colors in the message windows,
but you can't create new lines. Am I going to have to create my own method to draw costum text like this in my costum
menu?
As always,
thank you in advance for your advice!
Kind regards,
Lanzy

That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
