can you make floating text follow a unit? or is it just plain stationary? |

Have you even looked???! Here it is: Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Yes You Can above (Attacked unit) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency It's right there in Actions..... |

And right UNDER that is the text in gray saying that floating text doesn't follow the unit... I guess you could save the floating text to a variable and keep moving it to the unit. I'm not sure how good it would look. |

It would probably look okay but keep in mind it will probably cause some major lag. |

There's no way to Move a floating-text object... the best you can do is either constantly destroy it and remake it, or constantly set its velocity to the unit's movement speed & facing angle, or a combination of both... |

Every 0.1 second remove it, and then create it again. It doesnt even cause lag, unless u have a 286... |

It does create a lag, just wait until you play with other 12 players, and use the trigger 10+ times |
