How can I create texts ?

The help menu is kind of messy for first-time level makers. Articles found in the above link are pretty complicated lol. Thus let's keep it simple.. Go to Tools -> Level Properties and double click on one of the empty text lines in the box below. Now, right click on the the place in your level where you want the text to appear, and click Select Event. There, click Gameplay -> Triggers & Scenery -> Text. Now set the number of TextID to the number of the previously written text line. The rest explains itself I hope. ;) :p

Well after much clicking, curses, sucide atempts, broken keyboards and mouses I managed to enter a text, thanks a lot for the help :) :) :)

I have 1 more question, but not so important, can I (-)(-)(-) more test spaces ? If yes, how ?

There is no easy way to get more text strings.

those text boxes open up much in the same way you would click slowly on a windows icon to rename it.

I don't understand your question, but I'll give you a quick show of symbols to use when making text, and a couple of actual text lines for examples (note that there are no spaces between lines)

@ - Spaces your text down a "line" in the screen. Will also put a break into the text to make it readable (@@@@@@@@@@The core that the soldier retrieved@contained partial information,@but that information is still classified)

# - Makes your text colored

| - is a invisible character, sometimes used to space colored words out so they are all the same color. (#||||R|||||||U|||||||N|||||||!|||||||!|||||||!||| ||||!)

First click on the line you want, then click again and wait a second. then it will work.

My way of writing texts is to click on a line, and then to press F2.
