Destroy Messages

[ChubbyQuiche]

Hi, how can i create a trigger which destroys message (is it even possible)? I want to destroy a game message without fading or anything like that.

I want to make it as it is in Mafia map. When the host is setting up the roles, it instantly destroys message of old setup and creates a message of new setup.

ah thanks

EDIT: is it possible to destroy specific message? I mean something like this (unfortunately it isn't possible):

• Destroy Message
• Display to (All players) for 999.99 seconds the text: blablabla
• set Message = (last created message)

It is possible. You need to save all messages in variables then you clear screen. Remove that one specific from system and show all left ones.

Do you mean something like this?

• Set message1 = bla
• Display to (All players) for 999.99 seconds the text: message1
• Set message2 = blabla
• Display to (All players) for 999.99 seconds the text: message2
• Set message3 = blablabla
• Display to (All players) for 999.99 seconds the text: message3
• Clear screen
• Display to (All players) for 999.99 seconds the text: message1
• Display to (All players) for 999.99 seconds the text: message2

Like that, although one could write a system to automate the process for better readability and usability.

Be aware that this will not clear the logged messages in singleplayer. It will make the messages look really strange in the log with duplicates for each reprint.
