Hello World

PlayMaker → Addons → Getting Started

Simple examples showing how to set UI Text to say "Hello World."

01 Hello World

The most direct way, using a Set Text action:

01 hello world

Collapsed actions show a nice summary:

01 hello world collapsed

02 Hello World - Input

Use an Input variable to set the text in the Unity Inspector:

02 input 02 hello world

03 Hello World - Typewriter

Use the StringTypewriter action to make the display more interesting:

03 hello world

04 Hello World - Typewriter Loop

Use the StringTypewriter action in a loop to do more work when typing each letter, e.g., play a sound or spawn particles:

04 hello world

Don't worry if you don't quite get this example yet - it is more advanced!

It introduces the real power of PlayMaker, which is breaking behaviours into states.
