Floating text works, and other times not?O.o

[storgaard]

Hey everybody i got a problem with floating texts
Im picking out regions and giving them floating text names like "France" Or "England" but somehow, it only works sometimes!... like this
This one works

• Floating Text - Create floating text that reads British Empire at (Center of England <gen>) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 20.00, color (100.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%), and 100.00% transparency

But this one Dosnt!?

• Floating Text - Create floating text that reads France at (Center of Region 091 <gen>) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 20.00, color (100.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%), and 100.00% transparency

this cannot be resolved by just making new triggers, since its Every time i try to do it at that specific place, thats why i say its pretty random, but on the otherhand its not. does anybody have just a clue why this happens? because it seems, really really really weird.

Show us all your triggers related to this problem.

1.I think your trigger leak: (Or I have just get it in my mind)

• Slayer lvl
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of Slayer Lvl <gen>)
    • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Slayer LvL at Temp_Point with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)

2. Sometimes the color bugs try to make it to another color, one more thing I have notes if the floating text are in the same trigger it can sometime show up and some other time won't, make the floating text in a single trigger, one floating text for one trigger. Hope this help.

The leaks I guess are irrelevant to the problem.

 

[Zwiebelchen]

There is a limit of floating texts (I think it was 100). Make sure you do not exceed it.

And check if your region exists.

i think the better way is to post your floating text trigger, from the "extracted part", the trigger is nothing wrong.

You can only have up to 100 texttags at once.

Is that region right because its called "region 091" which im guessing should be "france"

 

[BcBoy]

Also, try just to create a new region and assign the Text to that one instead.

I got a similiar problem where a unit refused to issue a move order to a region, but all others. I just made a new one and put it on the same place and it worked. I deleted the old one and renamed the new one to exactly the same as the old one and it still worked.

I've heard from a friend that after 1.21 regions created in WorldEdit may bug and end up as "phantom"regions. But solution is easy when you are aware of it. Just create a new one.

I don't know if that may be your problem but i thought i was worthto mention.

Ive tried that tons of times, for an example i got 4 spain regions, and 3 france regions(thats why name dosnt work) but it seems like it certain places on the map where it just wont work, like on my map i can place floating texts all over the british ilses but not in france

 

[HeX.16]

Hmm i cant see a problem besides perhaps the wrong region selected. Sorry
When i hear that it works on certain parts of the map but not others i cant see how that is possible.

(i couldt agree more) but fact is that is the case thats the weird thing in this problem.

 

[canons200]

question, is the same floating text wont appearing? or all the time, random floating text wont work?

 

[storgaard]

No

No im pointing out regions and giving them names, so that when youre on the british ilses there is a floating text called" British Ilses" and when youre in France theres a floating text called "France" so difrent floating text, to name what region youre in.

 

[canons200]

Try to change the floating text transparency to 0%?

 

[storgaard]

Great

So ive did lots of difrent stuff, found out that im able to make this without using colors(making it white) but it still dosnt explain why it works the othertimes, but not on this trigger, heres the 2 triggers:

This one Works:

• [France
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Kingdom of France at (Center of France <gen>) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 20.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
  • /WC3] IF i change any of the color percentage it wont show.
  • This one Dosnt <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite12" alt="o_O" title="Er... what? o_O" loading="lazy" data-shortname="o_O" />
