When the pictures get deleted I’ll add more detailed instructions

Step 1: Game Overlay

Get a game overlay and set it to these settings

set overlay position and text to whatever you want
(Whoops that was the wrong picture, leave everything else as is)

Step 2: Popup

Get a popup and set it to these settings

set header text and context text to whatever you want, you can also include an icon on the popup, use this page to locate it and add it in
Custom images

set call to label actions to anything you want and the channels too

set font and background to anything you want and leave rest as is

Step 2.5: Channel

Connect Game Overlay to Popup to open when clicked with channels

Step 3: Notifications SETTINGS

Set both of it to this

Set notif placement to anything so with the duration

Step 3.5: Notifications BLOCKS

go to one of its blocks and click “when receiving channel” to the corresponding channel as the one in the call to action

make the blocks this with the exception with the header text and content text, use what you want it to say

make sure there’s a space before " says"
do the same to the other with the corresponding channel

Sorry if my grammar and the way I talked in this was a bit off and confusing, it was11:30 PM in my area and I was so sleepy :yawning_face: (I’m fully awake now, might edit it to make it sound better)

Look at this guide for help to make a chat system (TwiceOnce has an idea too, dang I was too late)
Guide to the Ultimate Chat System
(wait, I just skimmed through this guide and the pictures are gone…)
Also, can you answer this question so I can help you a bit more?

EDIT: To add to TwiceOnce’s post, the devices you will need is probably a game overlay (to show the button to the chat), notification devices(to notify players once you chat), and popups(for the things you want to say in the chat).

First of all, Necroposting is a basic rule. You should not revive a old Help topic [1] Please refrain from necroposting using the knowledge

Is there a way to make a lot of chat options on one pop-up I want to add like 50 or how can I do it?

15

yes, simply just make the other option switch to a new popup giving options for more, I can’t really think of any other free option nor do I have that much experience in gkc

To achieve many chat options, the standard method in Gimkit Creative is to create a chain of multiple pop-ups , or use the more advanced “button on the ground” method for a menu-like interface.
Place multiple Pop-up devices, in your map (up to the memory limit)
Configure each Pop-up, with two buttons
Set the primary call to action as an actual chat message or choice.
Set the secondary call to action to a “Next” button.
Wire them together, connect the secondary call to action of the first pop-up to the second pop-up, the second to the third, and so on.
Connect choices to actions The primary buttons will transmit on a channel when clicked, which can trigger a “Notification” device to display the message to everyone.

so basically you will only have one option on what to say per page and if you want another one you just have to keep pressing next?

could u maybe add some pictures pls on the call to action stuff and the block code

im kinda lost

Just to let everyone know, even if you post on this, adding to a necropost by saying something, it’s still necroposting. That goes to @goodbread and others. I know you guys are new users, but remember to look to see if the last Help Bugs Art post was written within the last week. If so, you can post – if not, it’s necroposting.

DO NOT REPLY PAST THIS POINT.
