That sounds great. I haven't learned entirely about them yet, but I know what your saying.
How would I go about setting up a trigger. I know I would need to press F4 to bring up the trigger editor then CTRL-E to bring up a new trigger. I have no idea how to code that though. In pseudo it would be something like?
Player - Add 10 to (Owner of (Casting unit)) Current lumber
Floating Text - Create floating text that reads +10 above (Casting unit) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (0.00%, 100.00%, 20.00%), and 0.00% transparency
Floating Text - Hide (Last created floating text) for (All players)
Floating Text - Show (Last created floating text) for (Player group((Owner of (Casting unit))))
Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 5.00 seconds
Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 2.00 seconds
Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 64.00 towards 90.00 degrees
I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
