how do i show text to triggering player only?

[darkreapers]

how can i show this text.

Your runner have made it to the end, 100 gold have been added for you.

only to players whoms runner made it through the maze n not to every player?

i would like to add under this trigger if possible.

• runner enter
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters lava end <gen>
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Runner
  • Actions
    • Unit - Kill (Triggering unit)
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Triggering unit) using UI\Feedback\GoldCredit\GoldCredit.mdl
    • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
    • Player - Add 100 to (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold

Game display text message(auto-timed) to (owner of(triggering unit))? No?

 

[darkreapers]

i dont think there is that option, if there is, i mus thave missed it, all iam getting is.

all players
players of control
all players matching condition
allies of player
enemy of player
converted player to group.

Then u might wanna set a region at the end point, and do this.

• Game - Display to (All players matching (((Region) contains (Triggering unit)) Equal to True)) the text: blah

But u might wanna put this in a new trigger, so every 5 seconds it will announce whoever is in the region. So once the person reaches the lava end point, u should move it to somewhere else, so it doesnt keep repeating.

to make floating text visible to only the triggering player, you might have to use

GetLocalPlayer()

which is more difficult than the before mentioned methods^^

Convert Triggering Player to player group!

This isn't terribly hard. I'm pretty lazy, and I use this function all the time.

When it gives you the option, show text for (All players), click all players, and then click on the drop down menu. Then choose, convert player number to player group. This uses a specific player instead of an entire group.

Then, for the Player number, the default is like Player 1. Click on player one, and scroll to the top, and select owner of unit. Now, for unit, open up the drop down menu again, and choose Event Response - Triggering Unit, or Event Response - Entering unit.

The trigger will be really long, and it's a lot of drop down menus to navigate, but this will allow you to do what you originally wanted.
