Question by catstampgames · May 27, 2018 at 05:02 PM · textstringreplace

Replace String

So I searched around and was unable to find anything talking about this. The manual seems to have nothing on it (at least that I could find). I want to use the replace command to... well replace. Does anyone know where I can find a page detailing it's use? I seriously couldn't find anything I don't know if I'm just dumb or what but I'm lost.

Hi, I also haven't found it in the manual. What do you need to do exactly?

Here is the documentation for the String.Replace method. Note that it doesn't change the existing string, it creates a new string with applied modifications. Here's the official definition:

"Returns a new string in which all occurrences of a specified Unicode character or String in the current string are replaced with another specified Unicode character or String"


Simple code example:

     string text = "Hello, World!";
     
     void Start()
     {
         text = text.Replace("Hello", "What's up");
         Debug.Log(text); 
         //output: "What's up, World!"
     }
