New parameter on the text command, <index> #43

Typically you only need to edit index 0, and when that's not the case you can usually use a plane for text. The planes are better than most other cases anyways.

However, there have been some cases where I felt editing another index would be more sufficient.

There are also some competitors in town that allow editing all indexes.


I also think I might add parameters for the other stuff, they could be useful in binds... Like this one:

/cobject <model>
/text <index> <toggle> <text> <font> <font size (the definition index)> <text size> <bold> <font color> <back color> <alignment (0, 1, 2, L, C, or R)>

It was always a pain in the ass to do the indexing when it comes to material text.

Crayder commented 8 years ago

Yeah, thus the low priority.

You have two options create a new variable or lump all text data together. The second option is the best route.

The textdraws are going to remain the same, there will just be a new var and command parameter for the new text's.

Maybe you could elaborate option 2?
