How to make the entrance of a character which name was chosen by user?

I was trying to make a script of where the user will choose his or her own name. Now, how can I make a character which name was chosen by the user enter the scene? Is there a script code that I should use for it or I must @YOU?

Say you named the character YOU and you gave the option to let the reader choose their own name. The script would look something like this.
Ex:
NARRATOR

So… what’s your name?

label first_name_input

input What’s Your First Name?|What’s Your First Name?|Done(YOU)

                    NARRATOR
                   Your name is [YOU], is this correct?

choice
“Yes”{
}
“No, I messed up!”{
goto first_name_input
}

For entering:

Ex:

@YOU enters from left to screen right and YOU is walk_neutral

Sounds fantastic.

But how could I possibly make sure that the character NAME I entered should possibly be seen in the scene all the time?

Is it like

[NAME]
I am pretty sure of it.

AM I correct with it?

Also, I wanted to see the exact code if the user’s name he chose is correct.

(YOU)
BLAH
Script Name:FIRSTNAME
Default Name: You

Whatever you named the character is the name you will use but the readers name will still show up. :blush:
