This is probably a simple thing and someone may have already asked already but I don't even know what to call this type of action.
Basically what I need to do is have text appear on the screen, and after x amount of time passes it goes away, without the player
being able to speed it up or do anything with it. I hope I am explaining this well.

I am using RPG Maker MV of course, I've fiddled around a little bit but so far haven't found anything that can
make this happen.

You can make this in the message.
If i'm not wrong if you put this \| in the show message text, it will wait 1 seg. If you put more, more seg.
And to the text vanish also has an option to this in the text codes. Something like "not wait for a input"

\^ Will not wait for input
That works very well, is there a way to set it so the player can't skip the dialogue? I need the text to appear for x amount of time, without
the player being able to interfere with it at all.

of course - I suggest you open the help file and check the list of the text codes yourself, there are too many to explain everyone to you here.

Try this:
Type your text and put this after \| \| \| \| \^

If you hover your mouse over the text box it will display a list of all the codes you can use to do different things in the text box, like wait a certain length of time, make the text disappear, change the text color, display the party leader's name, and way more! Go check it out!

Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
