So, I'm making a credits script which spawns movie-like credits rolling on the screen. The script works fine but I'm using bis_fnc_dynamictext to create the text, and there seems to be a limit to the length of the text you can use. My initial idea was to rewrite a very similar function only changing the length cap. Trouble is I don't understand what's limiting the length of the text in the original function. Any clues? Here's the code to the fnc: /* File: credits.sqf Author: Karel Moricky Description: Dynamic opening credits Parameter(s): _this select 0: Text _this select 1: (Optional) X coordinates _this select 2: (Optional) Y coordinates _this select 3: (Optional) Duration _this select 4: (Optional) Fadein time _this select 5: (Optional) Delta Y _this select 6: (Optional) Resource layer */ disableserialization; _text = _this select 0; _x = if (count _this > 1) then {_this select 1} else {-1}; _y = if (count _this > 2) then {_this select 2} else {-1}; _w = -1; _h = -1; _delay = if (count _this > 3) then {_this select 3} else {4}; _fade = if (count _this > 4) then {_this select 4} else {1}; _moveY = if (count _this > 5) then {_this select 5} else {0}; _layer = if (count _this > 6) then {_this select 6} else {[] call bis_fnc_rscLayer}; if (_delay < 0) then {_delay = 4}; if (_fade < 0) then {_fade = 1}; //--- Width and Height if (typename _x == typename []) then { _array = _x; _x = _array select 0; _w = _array select 1; }; if (typename _y == typename []) then { _array = _y; _y = _array select 0; _h = _array select 1; }; _layer cutrsc ["rscDynamicText","plain"]; _display = uinamespace getvariable "BIS_dynamicText"; _control = _display displayctrl 9999; _control ctrlsetfade 1; _control ctrlcommit 0; _pos = ctrlposition _control; if (_x != -1) then {_pos set [0,_x]}; if (_y != -1) then {_pos set [1,_y]}; if (_w != -1) then {_pos set [2,_w]}; if (_h != -1) then {_pos set [3,_h]}; _control ctrlsetposition _pos; if (typeName _text == typeName "") then { _control ctrlsetstructuredtext parseText _text; } else { _control ctrlsetstructuredtext _text; }; _control ctrlcommit 0; _control ctrlsetfade 0; _control ctrlcommit _fade; waituntil {ctrlcommitted _control}; if (_moveY != 0) then { _y = _pos select 1; _pos set [1,_y + _moveY]; _control ctrlsetposition _pos; _control ctrlcommit _delay; }; //if (_layer != 789) exitwith {}; _spawn = missionnamespace getvariable format ["bis_dynamicText_spawn_%1",_layer]; if (!isnil "_spawn") then {terminate _spawn}; _spawn = [_control,_delay,_fade,_moveY,_layer] spawn { disableserialization; _control = _this select 0; _delay = _this select 1; _fade = _this select 2; _moveY = _this select 3; _layer = _this select 4; if (_moveY != 0) then {waituntil {ctrlcommitted _control}} else {sleep _delay}; _control ctrlsetfade 1; _control ctrlcommit 1; waituntil {ctrlcommitted _control}; _layer cuttext ["","plain"]; }; missionnamespace setvariable [format ["bis_dynamicText_spawn_%1",_layer],_spawn]; waituntil {scriptdone _spawn};
