Ok, Folks you know in like X-files other scifi-modern type shows how like it types out the location where they are one letter at a time like Area51 so on so on... well in starcraft you could go like Event:Something( I forget How SC works trigger wise...)
Condition:something
Action: A (right first letter)






Then like 5-8 spaces forget so it would push the text off the screen!


AR


(5-8 more spaces)

ARE
(5-8Spaces)
AREA
(5-8 spaces)
AREA51

( u get the idea but how would you do that in war3? cause i am stumped....

I think you could do it with waits. Like this:

Display 1 sec: A
Wait 1 sec
Display 1 sec: AR
Wait 1 sec
Display 1 sec: ARE
Wait 1 sec

ect...

you could also leave 5 lines before each piece of text that only contain a space, so every time a new message appears the previous message is erased.

With using the timed text/waits it'll show for 1 second and then fade out, won't it?
