Description#

Replaces the input entity ID with a new string of text and fades the old label to the new one over the input duration.

As with other types of modifications, replacements made with this script are permanent and will persist until another replacement is performed. This script cannot be performed simultaneously with other replacement actions operating on the same entity ID.

See Macros & Keywords for a list of available style modes and ease modes.

   vngen_label_replace("label", auto, previous, inherit, 3);
