Team/All Chat Control?

[morganxl]

Is it possible to control which chat mode a player uses (by default) - team chat (Ctrl-Enter) or all (Shift-Enter)?

It's a common problem in my map when during 1v1 or 1v2 the lone players (especially newcomers) use Ally Chat.
So their messages can't be seen by opposing team. Apparently it's no use, the obvious solution is to set the chat mode to All at the start of the map for that particular lone player. Is this possible?

Well, no, you can't really detect which players view what message. You can do this though:

• Te
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Trigger - Add to Tri <gen> the event (Player - (Player((Integer A))) types a chat message containing <Empty String> as An exact match)

• Tri
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Player((Integer A))) controller) Equal to User
            • ((Player((Integer A))) slot status) Equal to Is playing
            • ((Player((Integer A))) is an enemy of (Triggering player)) Equal to True //Boolean comparison, Player - Player is an enemy of Player
          • Then - Actions
            • Custom script: call DisplayTimedTextFromPlayer (Player(GetForLoopIndexA()), 0, 0, 5, GetPlayerName(GetTriggerPlayer()) + ": " + GetEventPlayerChatString())
          • Else - Actions

To get "Player(IntegerA)", when it asks you for a player, scroll to "Conversion - Convert player index to player".

The only thing this trigger lacks is the colors for each player: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/jass-functions-413/player-color-utils-pcu-148188/
