How to make an error message like "Spell is not ready yet"?

[Flux]

I know it is possible to do it since I saw it in DOTA like "No valid unit to Toss" or "Cannot attack roshan from here". How can I make a custom error message using GUI Triggers. From google searching, I should use SimError but I have no idea how to do that. Anyway, please explain how can I achieve my desired custom error message.

The only problem is it overlaps with the current "real" error message. Example I have an error message of "spell is not ready yet" and then i triggered my custom error message, it overlaps making it unreadable.

Try removing one or two "\n" from the trigger. It might move the "fake" error message a little bit up. If you don't like that way, then I don't think you'd be able to prevent overlapping error messages.

BTW, don't repeat this error message too much. It will mess up game text message a lot if abused.

ok thanks. what do you mean do not repeat??
Edited: I also found a bug. when I order a unit, the error will be removed but when I stopped that unit, the error message is somewhere near the minimap.

Making the "Fake" error appear too many times. Since it spams line breaks, it would also ruin game texts show ingame so I suggest restricting its usage.

When I order a unit, the error message disappear. however, when i order that unit again, the error message's position is somewhere near the minimap and it increases its altitude as I continuously give order to that unit. Anyone aware of that bug?
Edited: Nevermind. It was caused by my other trigger that displays the order text causing that to happen.

So I guess this one is SOLVED?

You might want to use this one instead SimError
