Problem with picture while delsplaying words

-----------------------------------

Hey, i have a problem. I made a game who wants to be a millionare, and I want to make the following:

While the words are gettin typed, i mean the question, i was a face to desplay, i made the face, i made the face talk as well, i mean it moves the mouth. The problem is when i put the script of the talking face, in the questions. 1) first the face displayes 2) then the qusetion deisplays 3) the face blocks the questions (but i knwo how to fix it, with locating)

Thank you alot  :roll:

Would you please be more specific? Maybe some code would help.
You may also want to look up Draw.Text.

You can also try Font.Draw(). You can choose you own custom fonts and sizes.

:shock:  Is there actually a difference between Draw.Text and Font.Draw? I've used them interchangeably.

-----------------------------------

Avoid processes like the plague.
Procedures would make things easier, though.

If you throw the next string to be said at a procedure, you can go through the sentence one letter at a time - like so:

(This is without procedures - so only the first string is done as an example).


View.Set("offscreenonly")
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%This is the face%%%%%%%%%%%
var eyemove : int := 5
var mouth, mouth2 : int := 0

var tempstring : string


%this takes the next string to be spoken.
tempstring := "The 100 dollar question is easy"
for i : 1 .. length(tempstring)

    View.Update

    put tempstring(i)..
    Draw.FillOval (250, 370, 95, 100, 91)
    Draw.Oval (250, 370, 95, 100, black)

    %draw the hair
    drawline (200, 480, 200, 455, black)
    drawline (190, 480, 190, 448, black)
    drawline (180, 480, 180, 439, black)
    drawline (210, 480, 210, 460, black)
    drawline (220, 480, 220, 465, black)
