How do you put numbers in a sign or text?
Solution 1:
To include numbers in the text, use one of these special character sequences to display values input on the corresponding pins.
{R}
to display the value input on the red pin.
{G}
to display the value input on the green pin.
{B}
to display the value input on the blue pin.
For example, if you want to display the amount of gold a player has on a sign, you might wire their player stat to the red pin of the sign and then put the following text.
You have {R} gold.
If the player then has 80 gold, the {R}
will be replaced leaving the sign text to read:
You have 80 gold.
This works with Signs, Text Gadgets, and for some pins on the Message chip.
Solution 2:
You can also use {C}
, {M}
, {Y}
and {K}
to get inputs from the other pins, but their usefulness is mostly limited by their sideeffects.
