Basically i want it when a player stands on a square text appears, i dont want the ' hintstring "text" ' way of showing it, I want the text to be visible to EVERY player when its shown, like a welcome message? like on ib_glass when you go to the secret.. how can i do this?

I need there to be 5 different squares.

You have to use a trigger and when triggered just use

Code: Select all

trig = getent("triggername", "targetname");

while(1)
{
	trig waittill ("trigger");
	iprintln("text to all users");
	wait(.5);
}
