Change the visibility of text within the game

reddotinc

I'm trying to work out how to change the visibility of text based on an attribute, but obviously you can't change the visibility, and the text isn't affected by alpha changes.

Any ideas?

The only Idea I thought of would be to change the text displayed to be blank, but obviously that's not very clean.

Change attribute:

Actor.color.alpha to 0.5

or whatever

I have success use rule to check the time, in different time display same text in different alpha, the new one will overwrite the old alpha.

if time1
display text color 1
if time 2
display test color 2
...

Yeah, you cannot do it directly.

Either you need to set the text to "" like you said, or have two display texts like victor suggests.

However, I would suggest using .png text if you can, as the built-in text looks pretty unprofessional.

Good luck with that

Thanks FMG, but this is for stats, so it's not really feasible to go down any other route .. *Prays for custom fonts in the next update*

I thought it would work.
