There is a predefined variable called player, if I am not mistaken. I am trying to make a function (a textbox) where if the player is where the textbox will appear (y

OK, Repost.
I have this idea to make a textbox where if the player is behind the textbox (which would be y=80 or less) than the textbox is displayed at the bottom of the screen, instead. I got it to work, except for the 'player' variable... If I am not mistaken, this should work right=

//dis be the textbox function. duh
int textboxim;
void TextBox(string line1, string line2, string line3, string line4)
{
textboxim = LoadImage("textbox.gif");//loads image
while (!b1)
{
if (entity.y[player]*less than*=80);
{
Render();
CopySprite(0,0,320,80,textboxim);
GotoXY(4,4); PrintString(0,line1);
GotoXY(4,23); PrintString(0,line2);
GotoXY(4,42); PrintString(0,line3);
GotoXY(4,61); PrintString(0,line4);
ShowPage();
UpdateControls();
free(textboxim);
}
else
{
Render();
CopySprite(0,160,320,80,textboxim);
GotoXY(4,164); PrintString(0,line1);
GotoXY(4,183); PrintString(0,line2);
GotoXY(4,202); PrintString(0,line3);
GotoXY(4,221); PrintString(0,line4);
ShowPage();
UpdateControls();
free(textboxim);
}
}
}

However, the scriptor complains about the 'player' variable, even though it SHOULD always equal the player's sprite/entity number. If anybody knows how to work around this, can they tell me?
Thanks!
