Today I was going to work on fixing the three arms when holding a weapon and standing still issue, but Jake was doing arm and gun sprites, so I didn't want to make anything that's going to be replaced in the future. So I decided that in the beginning of the game, the player needs to react to the environment (being that he is surrounded in blood and there is bodies everywhere), as people do. We can't just have animations of that because: 1. That takes too much time. 2. It won't really explain anything and might be confusing. So I wanted to make text boxes for the reactions. As always, I went on youtube and found a video that would be useful. I followed through the video, and created a script, a text object, and a text trigger object. Basically what I want it to do is pop up when the player collides with the trigger, and scroll a line of text with a text box relative to the size of the text and such. The way the video did it was whenever the mouse clicks in a certain location, it spawns text, so mine is a little different. This might be why it created a few errors; one of which I fixed. Jake and Howie both tried to help me with this error but they don't know much about scripts, so they left me to deal with it. By the end of the class I didn't figure it out, so I will have to do that in tomorrow's class.
