Hi beautiful people out there!
I'm not really a programmer, more a storyteller by trade. But really been enjoying Game Maker Studio.
However, I've been having a tough time drawing text that someone could scroll through. For example, creating something like the textboxes in games like Planescape: Torment, or Baldur's Gate. I like that style, because sometime's you'll miss something, and my game is very text heavy.
Essentially, just want to be able to add text to a single stream when clicking certain objects, and then being able to scroll back, plus making the textbox scroll to the bottom, by default.
I've tried coding my own things for this, but figured out a way to make the text "scroll". Basically just drawing text at this point, using draw_text_ext. Nothing special.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
