how do we send text to only the player who's unit triggered something without making separate triggers for every player?

I usually send my text as Quest Messages so I'd do something like this

Quest - Display to (player group ((owner of(triggering unit)))) the Hint Message Blah Blah Blah


So in the Quest Message, where it asks you to enter a player group, go down to the Functions pull down and select Convert Player to Player Group. Then you can do anything to a player group that you can do to a player.

Hope that helps.
