How it's used

Structural overview — derived from this gate's ports, not from tested behavior. Takes 25 wire inputs: Anchor (vector), Angle (float), Mitered Outline (bool), Easing (int), Exec (exec), Font Color (color), Font Size (int), Justification (int), Letter Spacing (float), Lifetime (float), Line Height (float), Outline Color (color), Outline Size (int), Pivot (vector), Player State (entity), Position (vector), Scale (vector), Shadow Color (color), Shadow Offset (vector), Skew (float), Text (string), Text Id (int), Transition (float), Wrap Width (float), ZOrder (int). Produces 2 outputs: Exec Out (exec), Text Id Out (int). Configured with 2 properties (set on the gate, not wired): Font (object), Typeface (enum).

No curated example for this gate yet. The shape above is accurate (from the inventory); what it does in practice should be confirmed in-game.
