Hi I'm creating a new game, one of the systems in the game is typing (like word)
how can I program a typing script?

could you just use the question feature, as in:

ask [question] and wait

then check the answer with

if <(answer) = [the correct text]> then

end

Otherwise search for text engines to see how others have done this.

Hi.

Typing like word could be achieved by creating clones of letters, and putting for each clone (letter), the costume (character) of the letter you typed.
Unfortunately there is a limitation in the nr of clones, so you won't be able typing lots of sentences this way.

Another way, is to use the stamping of a sprite. You make a single sprite like in this project, you choose the correct costume depending on the character typed (here only a, b, c, d, e, i and w work). You then make it move at correct typing position, and you “stamp” your sprite on the background.
Notice: that way, you don't keep any recording of what's been typed. You just “paint” a text.
You'll see a small trick to rubbout the last typed char, with an “eraser” (use the left arrow, NOT the delete key).
Auto and manual line breaks are not handled; it's just an example.

If you want the text to “keep” recorded, you might use a table or a long string, that you might completely redisplay using stamping, at each text editing operation.
