Variables?
 
Here's a (hopefully) simple question - is there a variable that works as a PC's name (that can be used in a Text Event, for exampe)?

If there is a list of oft-used variables somewhere, that would be nice as well :)

There are the carat variables - if you insert a ^ in a text event or other event in the text area, it displays the currently selected party members name. A carat with a number inserts the name of the character at that position, with 1 being at the top, eg. ^2 lists the name of the second PC in the party.

Then, there are the ASL carats - ^A through ^Z, excluding D, H and M (they can be used but are already associated with time). These carats are defined through logic blocks.

I believe this is covered in the Help files if I left anything out. :)

If you use the ASL variables, let me know. I've not tried them out, just read the help docs. :)
