ok i might have just been reading old posts, but i searched scrolling credits and it said you had to use a png of your text. well i was experimenting and i put a "\n| between txt to try it out. (\n = space like hitting enter) so if this isnt known to any on here. open the expression editor in the display text behavior. and type your credits, put \n\n if you want a space between. ex:

thank you\n\nfamily\n\nfriends\n\n\n\n\nand you =]

thank you

family

friends

and you =]

also dont forget to use Option+Space to make spaces in the expression editor. then just add change attrib .self.motion.linear velocity.Y. and then make it posative to scroll up, or negative to scroll down. or do linear velocity.X to scroll sideways. then figure out the position when it gets to the end and make another rule. when last credits screen (current screen.background.layers (the credits text actor)) position > or = to the position change attrib for next text. repeat till all are done.

i hope this isnt too confusing, but its nice for credits =]
