bomb messages

[Hell_Soldier]

how do i do in script that when a bomb is blown text will appear notifing that the bomb exploded.

like if u destory a flak88 then a message will come up and say "the flak88 was destroyed"

[Ric-hard]

thread global/message_print.scr::message "The flak88 was destroyed!"

Appears as white text in the middle of the screen.

And to know when the bomb has blown, do this:

Code: Select all

while($targetname_of_your_bomb.exploded != 1) {
	waitframe
}
thread global/message_print.scr::message "The flak88 was destroyed!"

do i need to make a thread for this?

[Hell_Soldier]

k thx guys.

i did it in a thread, and put the message under the compass rather in the middle:

Code: Select all

bomb1_exploded:

while($flak_bomb.exploded != 1) { 
waitframe 
} 
iprintlnbold_noloc "The flak88 was destroyed!"

end

Yes, as execution of the script will not go past that point until the bomb has exploded, putting it in a separate thread is a good idea.
