Display for different players

[feelingparty]

This might have been asked quite a few times already. I, however, didn't find it so I'm asking here:

How can you modify a unit's or floating text's tinting and transparency for different players. I want to make a floating text only visible for some players.


Any thoughts?

• Actions
  • Set Player = (Triggering player)
  • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == udg_Player then
  • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Message at (Center of (Playable map area)) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
  • Custom script: endif
  • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
  • Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 4.00 seconds
  • Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 5.00 seconds

Create a floating text for Player.

if you are not familiar with GetLocalPlayer (it is not innocuous) you can as well hide the floating text for all players and unhide it only for a certain player.

Yes I can't seem to figure out what exactly GetLocalPlayer does. Will this work with units as well?

P.S. Thanks for the show/hide function. I kinda missed it
