{Solved} I need help with getting usernames

[Evanski]

I want to be able to fing the accountname of the user using the computer like C://users/billybobjoe
my username on the computer is evan so C://users/evan
I want to be able to have the game find that name and save it as a variable so that it can say Evan all over the place

Have a look at the string functions. You will likely want string_copy and string_length to crop off the characters before the username, followed by string_pos to find the next slash to determine where the username finishes and the rest of the path resumes.

Very simple. Use this function and save it to variable. That's it.

environment_get_variable("USERNAME")
