Player colors in text

[Nenad]

So i did the trigger that says

Player 1 has pawned Player 2's head for 100 gold

I want that player one and player 2 to be in color of the players is it possible?

I've already set the players colors for multiboard by the trigger so i thought i could use them from there i just dont know how

Oh yes my friend you can, Trust me, I made the tut for the Mboard

Here is how you do it.

Game - Display Text to (all players) "Playercolors[1]" + "Player 1" **You can even have thier name here ** + "has pawned" + "PlayerColors[2]" + "Player 2's head for 100 gold"

I dont got w/e on, but i trust you know how to make that if not wait till I am home then I can post all the info to make it that you need.

 

[Nenad]

[Nenad]

Dam it i tryed to do it the way he sad but i messed up my trigger lol i just have to w8 for him now

 

[NoxMortus]

Nenad download Senkin's Multiboard map and you wil see how to do it, also instead of 'Player 1 pawns Player 2's head' you can actually have the name of the player, under 'Player - Name' (I think its player - name anyway )

 

[Nenad]

I did i hate triggers they make me do weird stuff :nuts: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

What i mean to say is that i dont get the trigger part where u add the color what string is that

 

[Nenad]

bump

 

[Senkin]

Sorry I lost this post when I got it done I Pm'd u the trigger, if you need help just ask I can coach through it.

 

[Nenad]

Yes it all works just 1 itsy bitsy problem

My Text goes like this

Player 1 has pawnedPlayer 2 for 100 gold

Can i somhow make it so only the names are in color not the whole text

 

[Senkin]

DOOH!, I f*&^ed up. Ok on the end of Player name add a concintrated string and in the text add |r, do that on the ned of eatch player name area and it is good.

---- EDIT ---
Here ya go
Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Player_Colors[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + ((Name of (Owner of (Killing unit))) + |r)) + (Has killed + (Player_Colors[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))] + ((Name of (Owner of (Dying unit))) + |r))))

 

[Nenad]

[Senkin]

add the |r after the player name of player line in the string

so it would be like display playercolor[player nr of player] player name of [player] |r Has pawned playercolor[player nr of player] player name of [player] |r for 200 gold
