YattaYatta 10 Posted January 17, 2014 Hello, Is there a place where I can find all the possibilities to show message on the interface ? for now I know of Hint, dialogs and simpleTasks. Are there others options ? The main thing Im looking for is a way to send information to specific players or group of players in a non control-taking way, and with a buffer a new notification doesnt overwrite so previous one too soon. I can script the buffer system, and I guess I could hack the task system somehow to do the notification, but is there no better way ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iceman77 18 Posted January 18, 2014 You're looking to use cutRsc since it doesn't steal focus away from the controls. You may also want to create the resource in it's own layer, so you can render multiple resources at once. There's also simply titleText among other variants.

dr_strangepete 6 Posted January 18, 2014 I guess I could hack the task system somehow to do the notification, Notifications (also used for Tasks, but not only) are pretty configurable, if you decide to go that route take a look at Notifications - https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Notification, which is a page under the Mission Presentation Wiki that is stickied at the top of this forum. You can set an icon, colors, display time, priority, etc.. And if i recall if multiple are called they stack instead of erasing the old one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
