What for do you need so many floating texts?
You can replace some of them with hints, or info in quests / multiboard.

1st, i need to make many FT (floating text) to Guard or make player easier to see something,
and i have FT for the skill name when unit casted spell,

the number of spell will increase according to the newer and newer version of my map, (this version used 70 FT [not include spell floating text])

and the next version in calculation its need 142 FT,

so i need it much much more for the future of my map....

1. Just remove a FT faster. You can set a lifespan for it.

2. Try to use FT for local player in some cases. So one players will see it, another won't. I think it'll allow you to make 100 FT for each player.

 

[jareph]

is that true:
example,
i create 100 FT for local player, and 100 for all player , then got 200 FT viewed for the player???
so i create 100 FT for every local player, and 100 for all player , then all player see 200 FT??

if yes , may you give me the code to create FT for local player?

I'm not sure about the local player. It's just a possible solution.

• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  • If - Conditions
    • (Triggering player) Equal to (Local player)
  • Then - Actions
  • Else - Actions

if GetTriggerPlayer()==GetLocalPlayer() then
endif

Wont that cause a desync?
Creating a floating text localy might desync... Actually I'm 90% sure about it.

I dont think its possible. It would also be a big help for me to remove the limit, but instead I must use dummy models

Creating it locally will cause a desync. Displaying it and moving it around locally wont thoguh. See Breaking the TextTag Limit - Wc3campaigns

 

[jareph]

The limit is, of course, that the maximum number of messages you are able to display is 99*<number of players in the map>, and still no player can see more than 99 texttags at any given time. However, take a map that uses texttags to show unit taunts for the opposing team (such as in Rising_Dusk's AotZ), the description for an item currently being tempered at a player's altar, and for a few spells on the map that show text for the casting player as an example.

i need see more than 100 FT...

 

[Bloody_Turds]

im curious, if critical strike/goldmineing/shadowstrike use this floating text limit also >.< fyi, hbout only enableing floating text that are nearby the units of the rpg?

 

[jareph]

i have try ur idea, but faild....>.<

i have hided the text, but also can't go over the "100" limit FT,

or remove it when all player dint view it and create it again if any 1 who see the position if the FT..... sound like crazy...

i prefer combine all FT and edit the position by using space bar.....=.=
that the only i can think =.=
