making a cheat console?

cool! i set the text field up like in the example

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class Example : $$anonymous$$onoBehaviour {
     public string stringToEdit = "Hello World";
     void OnGUI() {
         stringToEdit = GUI.TextField(new Rect(10, 10, 200, 20), stringToEdit, 25);
     }
 }

but nothing happens when i type into the text field in-game... :(

Try setting stringToEdit = "" and type into box

ahh yes yes forgot to mention tried to do that already nothing happened :( makes me sad

You are clicking your mouse into the box? I tested a scene I have setup to accept user input using this

 GUI.Label (new Rect(10,330, 500,35), "Name?");
     pcName = GUI.TextField (new Rect (15, 355, 50, 35), pcName);

and it works fine

yeah i'm clicking the mouse in the box. i'll try your code now, though.
