Random word creator that lasts

jakea782

Is there a way to use one actor but spawn different text. What I want to do is have one actor be spawned at the top of the screen but every time it's spawned, use a different text to display. I want to avoid using a bunch of different actors to create this. The actors will be going down the screen but almost every time a new actor is spawned, it changes midway through the screen. I don't have the timing right just yet but I have a feeling there's something else I'm missing. So mainly, spawn the actor with the text and have the actor stay that way the entire time it's on the screen.

should be easy using tables. just have a table with all the words and every time you spawn the actor increment an integer and use that integer to reference the row.

Use the random function and the table row count function to pick a random word from that table
