Random Comments

[Amargaard]

Hey guys, me and two other users here on the hive have recently started a campaign project and one of the special features is that the 6 playable heroes will say random comments everytime casting a spell.

Are there anyone of you who knows how to create triggers for when each spell is activated, a random comment from a list of three or more comments is selected and said?

Sorry for double posting, but how did you create the "//String variable" action? :O

EDIT: First post deleted

 

[Fjury]

He's probably just showing that they're string variables.

 

[Amargaard]

Oh... I'll try it out now

Maker's trigger works, but didn't you want to make the text go above Hero?

 

[Amargaard]

Nope, actually I want the Cinematic version where you can see the portrait talk meanwhile
Didn't work. Here's what I did to my triggers:

Untitled Trigger 004
Events:
Unit - *Unit* Starts the effect of an ability
Conditions:
(Ability being cast) Equal to *ability*
Actions:
Cinematic - Send transmission to (All Players) from *Unit* named *name*: Play *no sound* and display *Name_Comment*[Random interigor number between 0 and 2]

Untitled Trigger 003
Events:
Conditions:
Actions:
Set Name_Comment[0] = Yo
Set Name_Comment[1] = Momma
Set Name_Comment[2] = Fat

The Variable
Type: String
Arrey: 2

What's wrong? :/

Untitled Trigger 003
Events:
Conditions:
Actions:
Set Name_Comment[0] = Yo
Set Name_Comment[1] = Momma
Set Name_Comment[2] = Fat

Does this trigger have an event? It should have the Map Initialization one.

Oh then that is my problem! Thanks, rep for that

Hmm... another question. In-game the comment is not shown, the portrait plays it's talk animation, but the comment is invisible. However when I go to the Chat-log I can see it. Strange O.O
