Ok, I am sure this is a really dumb question, But I can't seem to figure it out. I see Factories and such with multiple lines ofr the sign name rather then 1 looooooong line - How is this done please?


I do not want just 1 really long line like this.


I do want multiple

lines like this.


Thanks for the help...

You have to make it in Notepad or some other similar program then copy/paste it over for the 'enter's to take effect. There is a character limit (including colors) though I'm not certain what it is.


Don't forget you need to setup your copy/paste keystrokes in SWG also, as the windows ones don't function ingame.

Open your notepad by typing /note

Enter the text the way you want it, with returns and such.

Highlight, cut and paste that text into the name box for the structure.


You may need to go to Options-> Controls -> Keymap and map (under chat) cut and paste to keys before this will work, btw. They aren't mapped by default.

Take care,

Ah yeah. I keep forgetting that thing is there lol.


But it's just as well. I have a nice long Wordpad doc with all of my item / structure names in it right there for copying and editing.


Between the two, it's purely personal preference. His way is easier if you don't intend to do it alot, I believe mine is if you do. But again, personal preference.
