Hi Adas,

Have you done programming in any language before? Even just basic? Generally if someone has no programming background "How to" often really means "make this for me".

Anyway, create an object. Add an event (a draw event). Go into the control tab, find 'draw variable' and drag it over to the draw. Make the variable "TEST", including the talking marks (your supposed to put a variable in there normally). Check the relative box below. Now make a room and put the object inside it and run. That'll show some text.

I'll see how you go with that before getting onto walking objects.

And wow, they are putting up the price from $25 to $40 soon? It's sad Mike Overmaars didn't get more purchases when he owned it (but what can I say, I didn't buy it back then either).
