I do not know if anyone would make use of this because of how relatively easy it is to make, but hey. This is basically an open-sourced system that typewrites strings onto a GUI. And yes, this can process numbers, symbols, and emojis.
It runs with one script, and for the most part, is heavily documented.
Note: You’re not required to credit me but if you have a youtube channel featuring this tutorial please do so.
Here’s a link to the uncopylocked place and remember to play around and change stuff up! Happy developing.
I would opt firstly to keep the text a constant size, and secondly to make sure previously written text doesn’t move from its original spot. By the way, the white-on-pink combo makes it difficult for people with compromised eyesight to read.
Great resource, although there is really no point to open source a whole game that requires the launching of studio when you can just do:
--[~[ Put inside the TextLabel! ]~]--
local final = "Hello, world!" -- the final text of the typewriting
local delay = 0.1 -- the delay (in seconds) that a letter will be outputted
for i = 1,#final do
script.Parent.Text = string.sub(final,i,1)
wait(delay)
end
That is just 7 lines, and it can be shortened down to 4.
You see this was just for resource sake because people might want to implement it. However, you have a great point there, will definitely take this into consideration when making my own games, Cheers!
Funny thing is, I was wondering what a heartbeat loop was and watched a RunService tutorial by the “TheDevKing”'! (I understand it clearly now) Thanks for the constructive criticism and will definitely take it into consideration next time.
wait(0.2)
local final = script.Parent.Parent.Text.Value – the final text of the typewriting
local delay = 0.2 – the delay (in seconds) that a letter will be outputted
for i = 1,#final do
script.Parent.Text = string.sub(final,i,1)
wait(delay)
end
end)
do you know why this happens, if so, could you point out the error (question mark and slash button is broken)
