chat message when unit enter region

[stan0033]

How to set it up? when unit 0001 enter region 001 a chat message appears "Entered!". And the message should not be spam, but single. It doesn't depend from who is the CHAT message. I want it to be on chat, not the other kind of message. Like player 1 says: Entered!

Have you even searched for this event or action?

There is an event: A unit enters a region

There is an action: Display "Text" for x seconds

How about this:

Untitled Trigger 007 Events Unit - A unit enters Region 000 <gen> Conditions Actions Trigger - Turn off (This trigger) Custom script: call DisplayTimedTextFromPlayer(GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()), 0, 0, 5, "Entered")

The 5 is the duration.

1. How do you define WHICH unit when enter the region to display message

 

[Maker]

You can set the unit into a variable, use the variable as a condition, Triggerin unit == unitVariable.

 

[stan0033]

The trigger works for the specific units(with variable), but also works for any other!

That's the point of 'Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)'

If you want it to work more then once you can either remove that, or wait a few seconds and turn the trigger on once more.

Hmm.. i got it I wanna ask
- The script for player chat does not show up a player chat, but just message.

What do you mean ?

 

[Whitewolf8]

Would be something like this I imagine~

 

[GreeN!X]

I don't think that's possible.

 

[IcemanBo]

Or you display message:
("[All]" + ColourCode + PlayerName + ":|r Hello!")

 

[GreeN!X]

Yeah, perhaps you can trigger the chat instead. ^^

 

[stan0033]

Hmm... then is there a trigger that disables chat?

Sorry for being offtopic, but whats the difference between DTTFromPlayer and DTTToPlayer?

ToPlayer displays it only to one player, FromPlayer to everyone? Not sure actually.
