Is there any way for me to increase the message length of a character? Right now I'm limited to only 3 lines of text. I would like to be able to scroll messages so that I could tell a story as my character visits shops and such. Thanks.

What you can do is link strings together. Type in the message strings you want to use under Quests > Strings. Then when selecting what string you want to use for a room, select next string and select the next string to be displayed.

You can't. What you can do is link strings together, by choosing the string you want to come up next. It's right below the string box when you edit a string.

The many wonders of 1.92. I have a lot to relearn.

I don't see the next string command. I believe I am using 1.90. Could this be the reason?

It very well could be. ;) If you want to link strings, get the beta. Or just put off strings until later, hopeing that the new final version comes out soon....

/me waits hopefully.
