Grabbing HUD Message Text in Custom Widget

Development Programming & Scripting

For the life of me, I can’t find reference to this anywhere…

Are the only options for HUD to:

  1. Make a HUD entirely in VERSE
  2. Make a static HUD using the widget editor
  3. Use the default widget with dynamic text
  4. Stack and overlay the 3 above

Can I not make a custom widget, and grab it and then a child text element within a simple verse script? Or use the basic “message” text in a widget made in the widget editor?
