Game - Force UI Key

[QueenOfOblivion]

Is there any way to do this but for keys like 'Enter' and 'Shift'?

• Game - Force Player 1 (Red) to press the key A

 

[Element of Water]

No. Why would you want to do that anyway? That function is for making the player use a hotkey.

 

[Eleandor]

I have not tested this, but if there is a way, it would probably be this one:

• Game - Force Player 1 (red) to press the key \r

It's the "Carriage Return" escape character. Otherwise try \n. Again, I doubt it'll work

 

[Element of Water]

I don't think it lets you enter more than character though...

 

[QueenOfOblivion]

i just tried to type -test and then pressed enter again but nothing happened

• test
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -test as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Wait 2.00 seconds
    • Game - Force Player 1 (Red) to press the key A

does that function even work?
Edit: neither \n nor \r works

 

[Element of Water]

What that function does, is force you to use a hotkey. Nothing more, nothing less.

 

[QueenOfOblivion]

Oh, so you cant write stuff for people.. Well, Is there any way to do that? Write stuff for people?

 

[Avator]

You can write stuff with the chat like everyone, but if you want it differently, you can use

• Game - Text Message

This shows a message to all players. If you don't know what kind of messages these are: They're used for showing hints every once in a while in games that have hints.

 

[QueenOfOblivion]

I meant: Can you use triggers to write stuff in chat for other players?..

 

[Avator]

Nope, but Text Messages do the same. It's just placed a bit higher, but it can still do exactly the same.

 

[QueenOfOblivion]

exactly the same.

I want a trigger that randomly, players curse each other, how is that the same?

 

[Element of Water]

You just do Game - Text Message (Player Name of YourPlayer + " fuck off") (or whatever your "curse" is.

 

[QueenOfOblivion]

Not real enough, ty anyway

 

[Element of Water]

With the JASS function DisplayTimedTextToPlayer, you can give it screen coordinates, as in, where you want the text to be on the screen. That might help.

Lol.. I like the idea.. Might gonna make something like this in a ''fake'' version of my map. Haha. : )
