[Trigger] Mad Dialog ?!

[jonhysone]

Hi guys,

Here is my simple trigger, it's about showing a dialog (without buttons) with some title and after a while hide and remove it. But yet, it shows up, but never gets hidden again (I press all keyboard's keys, nothing happens). This is of course not periodic.

My question is , why doesn't it get hidden? what halts it from that?

• Events
  • Time - Elapsed time is 10 seconds
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Dialog - Clear StartUp_Dialog
  • Dialog - Change StartUp_Dialog title to "Hello"
  • Player Group - Pick Every Player in (All Players) and do :
    • Loop - Actions
      • Dialog - Show StartUp_Dialog for (Picked Player)
  • Wait - Wait 2.00 seconds
  • Player Group - Pick Every Player in (All Players) and do :
    • Loop - Actions
      • Dialog - Hide StartUp_Dialog for (Picked Player)
      • Dialog - Clear StartUp_Dialog

Try to clear it before you hide it. Also, do you use Startup_Dialog or any other dialogs in other triggers?

I am pretty sure the wait is to blame. Because they are odd.

Are you testing this in single player? Dialogs pause the game in SP and therefore it will not fire the next actions untill the game is unpaused.

Infrane nailed it. The "hide" trigger has to be executed by a button click.

Well this was the issue, I tried the map in LAN and the Dialog got hidden successfully, that's so clever, thanks !

+rep for all.
