Hello everyone,

It's my first time here. Thanks Alex for all your work!

This should be simple, but I can't find it in the tutorial or other docs. I want to ask the player to name their character. I need to prompt the character and then have them provide a string. Then I need to access the string to display or copy it to 'player.name'.

I can't find the function that asks the character to input a string. "Ask" seems to only ask Yes/No questions.

Thanks for any help,
