A text formatting question

How do you insert line breaks in, like say the mission intro? Right now everything is one gigantic paragraph, and I'd like to break it up some. So is there something like a <BR> that I can use, something to get around this Wall of Text?

Line breaks in mission intros are automatically turned into <br><br>, I believe. All you have to do is put them in while typing in the windows. I suppose they could be inserted manually also.

Sweet - ok, so just simple HTML coding will work in the game? Cool.

remember that &lt;br&gt; counts as 4 characters toward your limit. (or is it /br counting as three?)

/br doesn't work. You can just enter your paragraph breaks as normal (enter/enter) and then the editor saves the file it will convert them all to &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; for you.

If you're close to the 100k limit on file size and have lots of these, you may have to replace all the &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; text w/ the "real thing" in order to publish (as actual newlines take 1 char each vs. the 4 for &lt;br&gt.
