For some reason when I make a trigger in SCMDraft 2 it won't display text messages, does anyone else have this problen?



None.

Do you have the trigger in the wrong force?
Do you have the trigger in wrong player?
Do you have it activating on something thats not happening?
Is your text invisible? =o

A little more information would be nice.. like the layout of the trigger ¬_¬
Force And or Player, Conditions & Actions



None.

Are subtitles activated / Is the text shown as subtitle?

I am new to SCMDraft, but everything else in the trigger works except the text part, I will try to check out that subtitle thing you are talking about.



None.

Okay I've done testing with different editors and it's definatly SCMDraft 2 that is not showing the text, is there some kind of setting I have off? I tried using it with and without colors, everything in the trigger works but the text and it works with different editors. I am basically trying to make it so I can solely use SCMDraft 2, instead of doing my triggers in X-tra editor and finising up with SCMDraft.

In that case either subtitles or trigger owned not by the human player is the problem.
About subtitles:
There's a checkmark "always display" when editing the text. If it is checked the text is not marked as subtitle thus appearing always.

Oh and I hope you used "diplay text", not "comment"

Go to triggers -> trigger editor (not classig map trigs) and copy and paste the trigger here. Then we would be able to say more.

Are you using Scmdraft2 0.8.0? It should have text marked as always display by default.



None.

Ahh thanks! I didn't see that always display thing, I've never touched that and I must have hit a hotkey or something to take it off.



None.
