Instructions

Just read until it lets you put in your own thing, then type whatever you want! If you want to skip all that reading, press any key while clicking the green flag. If you want THE ENTIRE AMERICAN KEYBOARD'S WORTH of characters. then use @ElvenEmperor's version! The remix is easy to find, since it's the very first one!

Description

Notes ~~~~~ Its been nearly a year since my last text engine, Doodleworld Text Engine (https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/871249535/ ), so I thought I'd do it again! I think I definitely improved on the last time. While the features included are nothing new, I built them from scratch (pun absolutely intended) myself! Use the engine in your projects as you please, as long as you give credit. TO ADD A NEW CHARACTER: Put it second to last in the costumes, before the black square. Then, temporarily delete the last item in the "letter widths" list, taking note of its value: 16. Add a new item, then put in the width (in pixels) of your new .character. For reference, one square in the sprite editor is four pixels. Don't put exact width; instead, put how much space there should be for your character. Then add a new item and put its value as 16; this will be the black square. You may have to mess with the width a little bit, but it should now work! TO ADD A NEW SOUND Simply add a new sound in the sound editor, and its name will be what needs to be put into the custom block. TO ADD A NEW EFFECT Go to the script that has all the "If effect=()" conditions. Add a new "if, then" block, and make the text move, change color, or whatever you want! Just remember, when moving the text, use the "oX" and "oY" variables to anchor it. Otherwise, the text will pretty much fly away. Trust me, I know from experience.
