Default How can a character Say all numbers in array in the same bubble? - 03-27-2010, 09:34 PM

I am doing a program to sort an array of numbers. I have the logic working but i wanted to make a character say all the numbers before they are sorted and after they are sorted. I can do that one by one but i was wondering if i can do it at the same time. For example Say "100,200,300" in the same bubble. I can also use Print to output on the bottom of screen but that is kinda of annoying too because it looks like "the value world.mylogic.Unnamed1_Unnamed2_Unnamed 3 is 100" and so on. Any suggestions?

Thanks a bunch.

create a method:

"object" say "hello"

click "world" in the object tree, then Functions tab
replace "hello" with "[a] joined with [b]"
replace [a] with "[what] as a string" and select "expressions" then the variable.
do the same with [b].

you can also do: "[a] joined with {[a] joined with [b]}" to give you 3 variables or strings joined together. You can do this with as many "[a] joined with [b]s" as necessary to get the number of phrases you want.

Thank you but i am aware of that way and it does work. I can make the character "say item0 from array", "item1 from array and so on" with using "a joined with b". I wanted to have a loop of outputting multiple values from an array using the index and display them in the same bubble though. I'm not sure if that's even possible . Thanks again.
