How to send chat message as player?

[Deleted member 219079]

Didn't find a function to this, is it doable? I mean how could I display chat messages as player?

 

[Pharaoh_]

Simulation. Add the player's name as a string and then the remaining message.

But then it'll be sent to different text field like this:

 

[Pharaoh_]

http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/cat_usersubmit.php?view=51307 and then manually display the texts (display - entered chat string); not a recommended method to be honest, but does the job.
or
try to set the coordinates of the text through the jass function and detect when a player writes something to move the text accordingly in terms of coordinates.

Do you use ConvertedPlayerId?

In what? Do you mean getplayerid

Because if you use Player Number of (Triggering Player), the screenshot that you posted will happen.

His problem is not color, text position.(and maybe font)

It's only doable with the way Pharaoh posted
