issues with module coding

[54newstar]

So I was getting ready to use the module system in the sky engine and followed the basic tutorials of print on screen. How ever it did not due what the video did. I followed it and it failed or I failed. I am thinking that this a me issue and not a engine issue but I am still having issues and the video is in silent mode.....sorry I prefer audio or a pdf manual.

I made a video about it so you guys could correct my mistakes, the module coding is toward the end.

Hi 54newstar,

I think it must be a bug since it does the same for me.

@SP @SF - I also tried the Console Print and that printed "Text" as well.

Hi 54NewStar,

We like what you have said in the video and we have took note of the many workflows from you and will see how things can be improved

The next update for the module system has many improvements and fixes and will be released by mid-next week. When working we have found many glitches which stop things working as well.

I will run this test myself to see if it is fixed

Edit: one thing i notice is that you need to press return in order for the Text variable to register

Hi and welcome 54NewStar

We have have improved the text module so that data is sent as soon as the module loses focus and fixed the not displaying issue.

The module system has had a big update with new modules and essential fixes that was stopping them from performing correctly. It is a very new system so will have a few teething problems but once it works as well as it does in my head it will be awesome

Okay for those having issues after you are done coding (press the enter key) then play the scene, then it will work.

Thanks guys.

Glad you got it working. We have changed the text value to store the string when you click off the widget or press return like you do, so in your workflow; you could type hi there and then press play without pressing return and the value would update and change.
