Is it possible to put multiple lines of string?

I am working on a plugin that develops a script for you from the input that the user gives. The problem is, I have to add to the already there script. To do so, I need to indent one line lower so the script does not have everything on one line. So is it possible to indent the string onto multiple lines?

I'd like to introduce you to the special character "\n", AKA Newline character.

You can use newline characters which are represented by \n in your string. For example, if you had a Script in Workspace just called Script, you could set the source like this:

game.Workspace.Script.Source = "local a = 1\nlocal b = 2"

And the two variable declarations will be on different lines, like this:

local a = 1
local b = 2

Sorry for the late acceptance, I did not see your reply. Thanks!

Try Using "TextScaled", on your TextBox's Text. Not Place-Holder Text.

Hope That Helped.

I was more meaning for the format of just a string so that it can become the script

Then what EmilBendsSpace said would work.
