ok, help, let's see, I do this thing with the chatting and the arrays and see, I got this multiplayer stuff down, i'm connect I begin chatting, but it's a 3D game, so I don't want lines of chat all the way down the screen, I just want 6 or 7 or 8 or so lines in a little chat box, away from the action, so I say, hmm, array ought to work, so I trys it, look

broken down and beaten, it looks something like this:



now tell me that isn't beautiful.. anyway, once I've sent or recieved the same number of times as the size of the array (so if my array is dimmed to 20 and i recieve or send 20 messages) it crashes to high heaven, the messages are scrolling well, until we reach the end of the array, i even dim it to 9 or 10 or 8 or 1 or 0 and that's a load of crap too, help, thanks

Use this function to add new text to your chat array, it will scroll through the chat with sChat(1) being the oldest message and sChat(8) being the newest.
