Floating Text Actions

Hi all!

I found this thread and saw the Set Floating Text Lifespan and Fading Time.

Could this be done in WE Unlimited or by custom script in anyway? Else just some other good action that makes sure that there won't be leaks and all the text will be deleted after some time.

Thx for your help

This can be done in the basic world editor. The description of the lifespan action even points out the floating text will be removed from memory.

Eh, I can't find the Lifespan Action under Floating Text - You sure this isn't Umswe or something like that?

Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 5.00 seconds

thats what normal WE tells me.

Still can't find it...

[edit] I know why you can't see the other actions in the trigger editor. Make sure the map is saved under TFT format, or you cannot see anything but 3 basic actions.

Hmm... you are right.. Does WE Unlimited hide some options since it hasen't been updated for a while? It only shows 3 or 4 in WE Unlimited, but all of them in the normal WE ^^

Btw. I can't get either Fraps or the noraml Print Screen button to work...

I believe WEU overrides the default actions, so anything added in a newer patch won't show up in WEU until it's updated for the new patch.

Press 'PrintScrn' on your keyboard, open MSPaint, Edit-->Paste. That should work unless your keyboard's button is screwed up. This will not work for compressed video (AVI, DivX) unless you lower your Hardware Acceleration.
