How would I call a const string list to display on screen?

Hi,

I am trying to call a list on screen of objectives completed.
Is there a way to call the cost string into a list?

Code:

    const string Objective_P = "  German Supply Tankers Survived,";		//BlueObjective3   Survived
    const string Objective_Q = "  English Supply Tankers Survived,";	//RedObjective4    Survived
    const string Objective_R = "  English Supply Tankers Destroyed,";		//BlueObjective5    Destroyed	

    string Objective_Total_Red = "";
    string Objective_Total_Blue = "";

When an objective is completed I add the Objective to the String "string Objective_Total_Blue" like this

Code:

Objective_Total_Blue += (Objective_P);]

So when I want to display the accumulated list onscreen string " Objective_Total_Blue = ""; " How do I do it?

Code:

                        GamePlay.gpHUDLogCenter(new Player[] { player }, "Objective_Total_Red ("")": "Objective_Total_Blue("")", new object[] { Objective_Total_Red.ToString(), Objective_Total_Blue.ToString() });

To Add the string use (the strings should declared global):

Code:

Objective_Total_Blue += Objective_P;

To show the strings use:

Code:

GamePlay.gpHUDLogCenter(null, "Red Objective Total: {0} :: Blue Objective Total: {1} ", new object[] { Objective_Total_Red, Objective_Total_Blue });

But be aware not every player has a screenresolution of 1920*1080 or higher, so it would be better to show the strings with a timedelay.

Thanks kodiak, i think I am getting the hang of those now

I have the global string already

so thats good. Now this string code I am getting the hang of it and can use lots now. thanks.

Will test when i get home, code looks good and should work fine.

Thanks. I will be putting your name in lights for Credit in helping me build this new ATAG mega mission RedvBlue1.0.

2200 lines of coding and no errors feels goooood.
