DisplayTextToForce to Timed

[kentzeus]

Hi, I wanted to change this to timed text instead

• Game - Display to Players the text: (PlayerColor[(Player number of Loan_player)] + ((Name of Loan_player) + (|r wants to borrow + ((String(Loan_playerBRequest)) + gold. Type |cFF99ccff-l|r to lend him.))))

So I converted it to custom text and just changed to DisplayTimedTextToForce and added the time udg_Loan_msgTime

call DisplayTimedTextToForce( udg_Players, udg_Loan_msgTime, ( udg_PlayerColor[GetConvertedPlayerId(udg_Loan_player)] + ( GetPlayerName(udg_Loan_player) + ( "|r wants to borrow " + ( I2S(udg_Loan_playerBRequest) + " gold. Type |cFF99ccff-l|r to lend him." ) )

But when I run the map it says "Syntax Error, unexpected: end of line?"

No need to convert to JASS, there is already a function that does that, it's just below it :

• Game - Display to (All players) for 30.00 seconds the text: Text

As for your custom script, I think you're missing a ")" at the end.

That happens because you're not closing your brackets. Check back on how many brackets you're opening and how many you're closing.

Yes but I have a lot of text messages that would be easier to change this way instead of redoing them all.

Tried adding that, doesn't work. I also tried removing, also doesn't work.
There is 8 ('s and 8 )'s so should be right

With JASS you can get rid of all of the unnecessary parenthesis fuckery that GUI adds:

call DisplayTimedTextToForce(udg_Players, udg_Loan_msgTime, udg_PlayerColor[GetConvertedPlayerId(udg_Loan_player)] + GetPlayerName(udg_Loan_player) + "|r wants to borrow " + I2S(udg_Loan_playerBRequest) + " gold. Type |cFF99ccff-l|r to lend him.")

Ohh nice it works thanks!

I had a problem with this again and it seems like a custom script can be too long, so not everything will be read and therefore it can bug for that reason. So that explains why it worked when I removed a few parentheses

There's a character limit.
