Text Blitter bug/ usernames overhead in MOO

[The_Alee]

Hi there,

I am trying to make names appear over everyone's heads in my MOO game. It is very easy with text blitter but there is a "trace drag" bug (it leaves stuff after it).

Any alternative to this? Any text object that can store values in it? etc.?

Thanks,
-Alex

Btw in my MMORPG I used Speech bubble with transparent background..it worked well but people dont like permanent names over head so now its only when mouse is over..

String objects have an alterable string... you can always cast a number to a string [str$()] and back [val()].
