Character ()

Display text

Displays the included text over the top of the linked characters head & plays an audio file - if included - & automatically plays the characters talk animation - if one was included in the current characters outfit. By default, unless displayed text was set as "background text" or the mouse cursor was hidden - prior to calling the display text action part; then the displayed text can be skipped by clicking the left mouse button! All actions listed after the displayed text will not be performed until the displayed text has finished being displayed unless the displayed text was set as "background text" - in which case actions can be performed while displayed text is being displayed!

Display text > Background-text

Background text; unlike normal displayed text, allows for users to perform actions while the text is displayed. You could use background-text for having people in the background have a conversation all the while, allowing you, to perform actions while the text is being displayed. Background-text can not be skipped via the left mouse button.

Send character to position

Send the linked character to a specified position; make sure the specified position is not outside of the wayborders.
If "wait until character reached destination" is selected then: all action parts listed after this, will not be performed until the character has reached the specified destination!
