Text box for end of each level

Newbie question.

In the game my son and I are working on, we want a text box to display at the end of the level.

-Collect the key, go to the door, display a small paragraph of text with a ‘press key to continue’ then continue to the next level.

I know that you can do an Alert, which is 90% of what we want to do; display text and press a key to continue.

however, we want to display a small paragraph of text, which is to much for the very handy Alert node.

How do we do this? I’ve searched through other games, but coming up empty. Seems like an easy thing to do, but we haven’t been able to figure it out.

Any help would be appreciated. :slight_smile:

Use the UI block. If you see, they let you type in any amount of on-screen code. There is an alpha input, which is basically opacity. Use that to make the text invisible (alpha 0) until you want it to appear (alpha 50 to 100).
