Text Input Field not appearing

[Zlus]

Hello,

I'm somewhat stuck trying to Show the text Input field:
When though I checked the Forum toroughly, the script command "TextInput(Text Field UI, Code, TextInput)" doesn't work and causes a Syntax error.
Why does this happen and is there a solution?

Dialogue System: Lua code 'TextInput(Text Field UI, Code, TextInput)' threw exception 'Code has syntax Errors:

Hi,

TextInput() is a sequencer command. Please put it in the node's Sequence field instead of the Script field.

Hello,

now I feel really stupid. Thanks for pointing it out!

No worries!
