Title: event exmsg question
Post by: baldielocks on June 18, 2010, 05:20:28 PM
Perhaps I am just wishful thinking here. The documentation says:
Quote
The event ExMsg command shows the string provided in the message parameter over the object given by the object ID.
.

I was hoping I could get a message to display over the pet. But no matter what I try (all ID's), I cant get a message. The example code shows #charID, is Event Exmsg limited only to that? I wanted to give pets some flavor with random messages associated with condition. Still got options, but that is the BEST one.

Baldie,

This code used to function exactly like you described it, you could hand it the id of anything and it would display the message over it (I wrote a script a long time ago to find blackrock pieces on the ground and popup the message OVER HERE above the piece of blackrock)  However, it apprears to have been broken for at least a few months now.  I have tried it several times in the past few months and can not get it to work with any id other than #charid.

JAF,
Thanks for the reply, and the clarification. Guess I go with plan B..... (okay, so I watched A-team too much).
