to display a text box at a default position and size.
Alternatively you can specify the position and size like
say "message" at x,y,w,h
I would like to change the position and size of my text boxes across my game, but at the moment that means adding at x,y,w,h to every single "say" command.
It'd be neat if you could change the default position and size through config.
There are already coordinates set in config with config.followCenterX and config.followCenterY, so I would suggest adding:
config.sayX
config.sayY
config.sayW
config.sayH
I think this would make customising the appearance of Pulp games simpler, easier, and still Pulp-like
I don’t have the power to add improvements to PulpScript, and I get the feeling no one will so I offer this fix for you.
Set the variables config_sayX, config_sayY, config_sayW and config_sayH (and make sure you don’t use those variables in the normal game stuff.) Copy the text at config_sayX,config_sayY,config_sayW,config_sayH into your clipboard. Put the text say “ into the find tool on the left of the script editor and press enter. You can then go through each one of these kinda quickly by pressing Ctrl-K (which finds the next item matching what you just searched,) the End key (which brings you to the end of the line) and then Ctrl-V (to paste that text you have copied.) It’ll be a minor pain, but it will just take a few minutes, and you will be able to use those config variables. If there are any you don’t want this configuration on, skip the End and Ctrl-V presses and just press Ctrl-K again to move on to the next one.
