Is there a way to have the words show up on screen as if a message is being typed instead of just showing up in a big block of text?

In Text Adventure, the "big brother" of this, there is a typewriter command...
You can even set the typing speed.

Do you know the code for it?

I don't think there is any way to duplicate it in Squiffy... sorry.
Is there a way to do a timer or loop???

Here's a link to Codepen, and a Javascript method of coding a multiline typewriter effect:
