Let us create a [[FormList]] for each name that contains the letters of that name. The name of each list will be ''nameX'' where ''X'' is the name (e.g. ''nameCloud''). If we try dragging and dropping ''B, a, r, r, e, t'' into a FormList for the name Barret, we will not be able to add the second '' | Let us create a [[FormList]] for each name that contains the letters of that name. The name of each list will be ''nameX'' where ''X'' is the name (e.g. ''nameCloud''). If we try dragging and dropping ''B, a, r, r, e, t'' into a FormList for the name Barret, we will not be able to add the second ''r'' because dragging and dropping allows us only to add base forms to a FormList once, since they have the same FormID. So, we must add the letters as references via a script using [[ListAddReference]] OR by placing the letters into the world in a cell somewhere and dragging their references from the Cell View window. For this example, lets assume we've added them to a test cell somewhere so we can use [[MoveTo]] to relocate them to their destinations. We will add the letters so that the first letter of each name is at index 0. | ||
If we wish to print these names into the world somewhere, we can use the [[Label]]/[[GoTo]] loop, one loop for each FormList of letters: | If we wish to print these names into the world somewhere, we can use the [[Label]]/[[GoTo]] loop, one loop for each FormList of letters: |
