Floating Text... Argh..

[jpres]

Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Tile One at (Center of Tile1 <gen>) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (80.00%, 100.00%, 40.00%), and 0.00% transparency

Okay I have that and in my other map it works, but in this maze i'm making it doesn't..? Is my region too big or something or what? Please help me out.. I'm so confused.

Because it's transparency is 0%, change it to 100%.

 

[jpres]

100% means completely invisible. 0% is visible..
Edit Didn't help : /

 

[Andrewgosu]

No, its vice versa.

Show the text after you create it.

Floating Text - Show (Last created floating text) for (All players)

The attachtment says the colour transparency, when set to 100%, is completely invisible, not the floating text itself. And like smith said, show the text, after you create it.

Thanks.

Wouldn't that just end up meaning invisible floating text?

 

[Andrewgosu]

Yes. But if you use 50%/50%50% for colours and 100% for floating text, that means your text is semi transparent. (or 100%100%100% and 50%for floating text.)

I think.

Ummm... the first 3 values are reals, not percents and they are the RGB values, not the color's transparency. And I think that the transparency applies for the text itself.

 

[exge]

is tile one a variable string or literally "tile one"
if so, maybe its the floating text - change permanance

I know they are RGB colours. Ok, nevermind, I could be wrong.

I just have some terrain and a loc over it. The loc is TileOne or wutev. I'll keep fiddlin with it. TY for peeps who tried to help.

Weird it works now, but didn't earlier. I am just not using color. That seems to mess me up. TY for help everyone.
