Newline character doesn't work with TextLabels

[Elmuowo (Elmu)]

Used command line to set TextLabel.Text into a string with newlines, no worky worky

Don’t put it in [[ ]], that won’t pick up the newline characters as actual newlines. Try putting regular double quotes instead.

[Elmuowo (Elmu)]

Tried that but got the error “unfinished string”

[buildthomas]

Can you post the string so I don’t have to type it over in Studio?

“HYPERSPACE ENGINE #1\n\nFUEL STATUS: FAIL\nCOOLANT ST.: FAIL\nELECTRICITY: OK\nHYPERDRIVE : FAIL\n\nENGINE FAILURE”

Is this two lines or one line in the script editor? I don’t see the issue if it is one, but, if it is two lines, then quotes to do multi line strings.

[Elmuowo (Elmu)]

One line

[buildthomas]

Works for me on TextLabels in ScreenGuis and SurfaceGuis

[Elmuowo (Elmu)]

Huh.

[buildthomas]

Did you forget a quote at the end that made you get the “unfinished string” error or something?

[Elmuowo (Elmu)]

[Elmuowo (Elmu)]

I deserved this
