Draws some text in the pattern of a wave with the given magnitude

// draw_text_wave(x, y, string, magnitude)
// Draws some text in the pattern of a wave with the given magnitude

var xx, l, i, c, a;

xx = argument0;
l = string_length(argument2);

draw_set_halign(fa_center);
draw_set_valign(fa_left);

for (i = 1; i <= l; i += 1) {
  c = string_char_at(argument2, i);
  a = i / 5; // adjustable
  draw_text_transformed(xx, argument1 + argument3 * cos(a),
                        c, 1, 1, radtodeg(arctan(sin(a))));
  xx += string_width(c) * 1.1;
