HI guys, I am working on a traveling system but it just doesn't work ... It is supposed to fire every time a unit enters one of 6 regions. The code is small and simple, but I just can't create the stupid text tags. Can some one please help me ?

JASS:

scope PlaneBomber initializer Init    

    globals
        private constant integer PLANEID = 'h00N'   //Id of the plane
        private rect array planeRegions[6]  //an array with all regions the plane will visit
        private timer array planeTextTimers[6]  //a Timer for each region
        private unit bomber = null  //just to know which plane 
    endglobals 
//============================================================
    private function ShowText takes nothing returns nothing
        local texttag text = CreateTextTag()
        
        //Although the BJDEBUG msg appears, this stupid texttag doest't .. !! WHY !!!
        call SetTextTagText(text, "TEST", .023)
        call SetTextTagPos(text, GetRectCenterX(gg_rct_Boom_1), GetRectCenterX(gg_rct_Boom_1), 280)
        call SetTextTagColor(text, GetRandomInt(50, 255), GetRandomInt(50, 255), GetRandomInt(50, 255), 255)
        call SetTextTagPermanent(text, false)
        call SetTextTagVelocity(text, 0, .0277)
        call SetTextTagFadepoint(text, 1)
        call SetTextTagLifespan(text, 2.5)
        
        set text = null

TheDamien	Try this: native SetTextTagVisibility takes texttag t, boolean flag returns nothing

Toadcop	damn 2 threads with title "BUG !!!" ... remember users are lame =O T_T

Alexander244	The function in isolation works fine, so I presume the 100 texttag limit is your problem.

wtf !?!??!
100 texttag ,limit ?! what is that supposed to mean !???!?!?
It makes no sense, this thing happened to work fine with dynamic inefficient and bugged triggers, now that I start remaking it without bugs and decently it doesn't work !?

Besides my map doesn't have 100 text tags at the same time ... Neither with all spells together I would reach that limit !

It has to be some other reason =(
BUG from BLIZZARD !!
Help please ?

Blubb-Tec	I got this idea, because Alexander244 said that isolated the function would work, so I think it is either 1. a problem with your global rect gg_rct_Boom_1, or 2. it is because you used call SetTextTagPos(text, GetRectCenterX(gg_rct_Boom_1), GetRectCenterX(gg_rct_Boom_1), 280) GetRectCenterX when you should have used GetRectCenterY

ARRRGHHH !!! Please don't say that !! I can't be that stupid ... I mean until now I lived in peace but now !!! (lol..)
I'll see what happens when I fix the bug ... however I don't think that will be the problem.
I will post a new version of code soon =S

EDIT EDIT EDIT

Bug solved, you were right all the time, thx for your help.
+rep to you all !
