I need a small message detailing an event to happen FOR TRIGGERING PLAYER ONLY!

I'm using Text message but there is no "triggering player"..what should i be using?



None.

If basically anything happens for only one player, it'll drop him from any other player.
I actually have no idea what you're asking about, and that's my best guess. Details are your friend.

None.

fine..then:

Unit enters within 1.0 of (Point)

Warp Unit
Pan Camera
--Display Text message: "You entered this place"

But only for that one player. . . whats the best way to give the player a Heads up on this information without telling everyone else?



None.

...Whoops, ventured into SCII on accident...

In any case, if it's like SCI, you can't have a unit in different places in two different versions of the game. Again, for SCI, all players, current player brings at least 1 unit. Something similar, I hope, is used in SCII. :bye1:

The display text message action has a player group parameter. The player group contains the players that will receive the message. If you want to send to only one player use the function Convert player to player group



None.

Since you can't use triggering player for this event(since a unit is triggering the event), use
-owner of unit (triggering unit)
- this will return the player owning the unit that enters the place

Display text message for player(owner of unit(triggering unit))

Ultraviolet -- let's fucking go on a madmen rage bruh

Vrael -- Alright fucks its time for cake and violence
[2024-5-07. : 7:47 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I suppose there's something to that
[2024-5-06. : 5:02 am]
Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless
[2024-5-06. : 5:02 am]
Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value
[2024-5-06. : 5:01 am]
Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius
[2024-5-06. : 3:04 am]
Ultraviolet -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff
With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort
[2024-5-06. : 12:51 am]
Oh_Man -- definitely EUD
