How to center your text in.....


Game - Display to (All players) for 5.00 seconds the text: |cFFFF0000Host|r ha...

 

[GunSlinger]

That cannot be done.
Though you could use a floating text.
or a custom filter.

Try different coordinates for native DisplayTextToPlayer(player, x, y, message).
(0.00, 0.00 is default)

 

[Maker]

^That. Try values around 1 for the x and work from there.

Sorry for not elaborating, i was in a hurry when i wrote that post.
Since you're, i guess, a GUI user, you should do it like this:

• Custom script: call DisplayTimedTextToPlayer(player, x, y, duration, message)

Instead of player, either type Player(player number) where 'player number' is different from GUI, player red's number is 0, blue's 1, teal's 2 etc...
or you can put a player variable there (remember to type it udg_ prefix: udg_variablename).
For message, type it within quotes " " or use a variable.
Other parameters are reals which you normally type.

If you want to display the message to multiple players, just loop through a player group (force) and add that line to it.

Change it to this

    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing aa as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set x_playerText = 500.00

    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set PlayerVariable = (Picked Player)
        • Custom script: call DisplayTimedTextToPlayer(udg_PlayerVariable, udg_x_playerText, udg_y_playerText, 10, "LOOOOOOL")

You can also directly type the coordinates like in

• Custom script: call DisplayTimedTextToPlayer(udg_PlayerVariable, 500.00, 250.00, 10, "LOOOOOOL")

EDIT: Also, you gotta add small values around 1 for coordinates, like Maker said.
For example, call DisplayTimedTextToPlayer(udg_PlayerVariable, 1.00, 1.00, 10, "LOOOOOOL") would display it a bit below time indicator.

Edit
its working xd

another question? how to put your text below?? is there a code for it?

 

[Garfield1337]

Add "\n" before the text you want below.
Example: "First line, blablabla \n second line lololo"

 

[Laiev]

This is what you want

 

[iAye]

in world editor is this the way to know the x,and y?

the point (the number thingy)

 

[Garfield1337]

Those are map coordinates. Game messages use different ones which range from 0 to ~1 or so (I'm not sure if you can use negative coordinates).
Either use the system Laiev linked or experimentally find the coordinates for screen center.
