I have been tearing my hair out (what is left of it) because this is so basic, and I can not get it to work
I am trying to get the player's name to appear in other parts of the game
on the options page there is a place for him to enter his name
In the game he brings up a letter with his name, but the name doesn't appear
Here is what I am doing
Make a global string "player's Name"
global event always player's name = players name
on the frame with the letter, I have a string named players name
on the frame with the letter start of frame player's name = players name (grabbing it from special- global string - players name)
What is wrong here
Something tells me I am going to kick myself when I hear what is wrong
