[Tutorial] "Custom" iPrintLnBold using HUD elements + randomized print function in Scripting

Got bored, decided to release this, as some people might find it useful. Yes, I know its easy to do yourself. Yes, I know there are better ways.
Just something better to use rather than using non-fading iPrintLnBold, that a lot of people use

Text itself in use in 8 seconds:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

/*
	level.iprint_1 = false; // Need these 3 in init
	level.iprint_2 = false;
	level.iprint_3 = false;
	self thread randomizing_partprint(); // Calling it on player
*/

At the bottom of your script:

Plaintext

randomizing_partprint()
{
	text_1 = "Picked up One Thing"; // Change to whatever you like
	text_2 = "Picked up Anything";
	text_3 = "Picked up Something";

	defined_text = undefined;
	rand = randomInt(3);
	if(rand == 0)
	{
		if(level.iprint_1 == false)
		{
			defined_text = text_1;
			level.iprint_1 = true;
			self thread new_text_function(defined_text);
