ScreenText()

From Hack Wars Wiki

This function is designed to draw text across the screen over time, as if someone were typing it. It looks cool and can be very useful for certain types of games.

Code

void screenText(string text, int stop, int x, int y) {
	if (getGlobal("screenTextTime")!="true") {
		setGlobal("screenTextB", 0);
		setGlobal("screenTextContent", "");
		createTimeStamp("screenText"); setGlobal("screenTextTime", "true");
	}
	int bb=0;
	int aa=getGlobal("screenTextB");
	int checkit=checkTimeStamp("screenText");
	if (aa<strlen(text) && aa<=stop) {
		if (checkit>=20) { setGlobal("screenTextB", aa+1); aa++; }
	}
int line=1;
int oldbb=0;
 
	while (bb<aa && bb<stop) {
		oldbb=bb;
		bb=indexOf(text, char(10), bb+1);
		if (bb==-1 || bb>aa) bb=aa;
		drawText(substr(text, oldbb, bb),"Lucida Console",10,x,y,255,255,255,255);
		line++;
		y=y+10;
	}
	//lastline=y;
}
