[JASS] TextTag + Camera

[DracoL1ch]

Did anyone tried/saw system to make some text staitc via TextTag overlay?

So it would keep adjusted to player's camera position wherever it is, remains visible regardless distance and so on. This would allow to use more customized HUD

Do you need it to be working in multi player?

 

[DracoL1ch]

yes, of course. does it really matter? texttags arent desync-affected agents

I am a little unsure, but I think this should work.

local location loc
local real x
local real y

if GetLocalPlayer() == yourPlayer then
    set loc = GetCameraTargetPositionLoc()
endif

set x = GetLocationX(loc)
set y = GetLocationY(loc)

//modify the x and y values

call SetTextTagPos(yourTextTag, x, y, z)

call RemoveLocation(loc)
