Multiplayer globalChat messages not showing up for all players

Recommended Posts

So ive got this operation with my unit on Saturday and I've been designing the op. I have an NPC that our captain talks to and it all works fine and dandy except for one thing, when we did our first test of the AI tonight, the conversation between them in global chat only shows up on the captains screen. No one else can see the conversation, even though its in global chat.

Ive looked at the conversation system how-to sticky, but im not sure if that will show up for everyone. Implementing it seems a bit much for our simple use of conversations. Any ideas on a quick fix of my problem? Thanks!

globalChat is local command and although it looks like global chat, only clients that execute this command will see it.

Use Multiplayer Framework instead (Functions module on map):

[player, nil, rGlobalChat, "Everyone should see this"] call RE;

Switch player to captain variable name so messages will have your ai unit name at the beginning.
