A problem with trigger - Quest Message??

[Bobanzanko]

Eh, I'm new in these triggers and I've been trying to create a trigger that will summon a quest message or a Game Message to a player saying: Welcome to the city of....and etc. However, I'm having a problem and I don't know what's wrong.

Here's what I want to do:

When a unit enters region, write a message onscreen saying: Welcome to the city!, but the message must show ONLY to the player who enters region, not to all players. Can someone tell me how to do this trigger?

• Game - Display to (All Players) the text: Welcom to the city...

Edit; oh you ment like that, read wrong =/
Just add the owner of entering unit to a player group then display the message to the player group then remove thw onwer from player group again.

Use this line of custom script in your trigger

• Custom script: call DisplayTextToPlayer(GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()), 0, 0, "Welcome to the city!")

This one line of jass will allow you to display a message to a single player, which isn't really available in GUI unless you convert a player into a player group.

What it's doing is taking the owner of the unit who entered the region and displaying the text between the "" symbols to that player.

Trigger: Entering new region message

Hmm I don't know how to do this...
I was working on an RPG, I've fully finished the terrain, but I'm not very experienced with triggers. If u know how to help me fix this problem, please tell me:

- When a player exits region, it should say: Entering New Region: (Region's name) *like a new land*, but the problem is, if I make a small region where when the player enters it shows message, the thing is, what if the unit runs opposite of the land that this message shows.

Example: The player goes north exiting region and it says message: Entering New Region: (and the name of the region he previously was). How can I make a trigger to tell a player when he enters region, to show a message?

Is there a trigger for example:
CONDITION
If unit's facing 90 degrees, then do Actions - QUest Message?

No, you do like this:

Event
A unit leaves Your Region <gen>
Action
Game - Display to (Player Group(PlayerOwner of (Triggering unit))) the text message (your text here)

Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it...I've finally made it..

But, now, a New problem occured.

I've been trying to create a quest message about a unit leaving a Land, for example in Twilight's Eve or Defiance there is: Entering New Region: Dark Forest. How can I make such trigger? Should the region be the size of the whole land or what?

I guess the trigger is the same like the other for the cities, but the problem is the region size. The region should be the size of the land, right?
