[RESOLVED] How to show a map's name, but not in the normal message form?

[gameo]

Well what i was looking for is when you enter a map, the map's name appears in one of the corners (that doesen't really matter).

Like, if i have a map called Silen Village (which i do, lol) then when entering it, some text in one of the corners should say Silen village without interupting the player.

It should last about 5 seconds or so.


Thanks in advance.

use "show picture command" do you have photoshop or paint? well make a tag for each map.

Or, you can use the Floating Location Window Script

Wow, what quick replies! So i should just have an event that auto-runs and shows the picture, then drop the opacity til 0?

well what modern suggested seems tons better, it's a script but I have never used it so I don't know the outcome of it.

[gameo]

Allright, i'll see what it does.

Should i just copy the script in his first post and insert it above main?

[gameo]

Okay, works fine. But how would i disable it and enable it? Because there are some maps where i don't want it to show.

I've attached a demo where it is disabled for some maps and not for others.
Just ignore the rain system I've also made.

Sorry for being such a pain in the *beep*, but i didn't quite understand that demo.

My question remains: "How do you disable it?" I can see you have disabled it on some maps in the demo, but how?

[Zeriab]

Select Floating Window in the Script Editor
Go to line 112 containing DISABLED_NUMBERS = [2,3]
This means that the map with ID 2 and 3 will not have the message displayed.
If you want to disabled the script for let's say the maps with ID 1, 6, 7 and 13 you just change the line to this:

Code Select Expand

DISABLED_NUMBERS = [1,6,7,13]

Also:

Code Select Expand

# Disabled for the map with ID 2
DISABLED_NUMBERS = [2]

# Not disabled at all
DISABLED_NUMBERS = []

Can you have it so it only calls it on certain events, like when you walk into the town from the gate, but not out of a house?
