Title: remove "master of the field" message
Post by: Torben on October 10, 2014, 04:42:45 pm

+1, Bump

Yes, this is an easy to fix problem, lets just ask to reduce the font.

this suggestion seems to be well supported,  considering the last two polls about it:

If it's shortened, what should it be changed to? Found it in the code. Then I'll ask the devs about it.

Shorten from "Hurry! Become master of the field!" to ???

Could move where it pops up to the top or bottom of the screen.

EDIT:
Code: [Select]
(else_try),
(eq, "$g_multiplayer_message_type", multiplayer_message_type_start_death_mode),
(assign, ":text_font_color", 0xFFFFFFFF),
(str_store_string, s0, "str_death_mode_started"),
(create_text_overlay, "$g_multiplayer_message_1", s0, tf_center_justify|tf_with_outline),
(overlay_set_color, "$g_multiplayer_message_1", ":text_font_color"),
(position_set_x, pos1, 350),
(position_set_x, pos1, 500), #new
(position_set_y, pos1, 400),
(overlay_set_position, "$g_multiplayer_message_1", pos1),
(position_set_x, pos1, 2000),
(position_set_y, pos1, 2000),
(overlay_set_size, "$g_multiplayer_message_1", pos1),
(presentation_set_duration, 400),

Starting line 3047 in module_presentations.

Could change (position_set_y, pos1, 400), -> (position_set_y, pos1, 700),
Should be in the top (4/4) of the screen.

"Hurry! Masturbate!"

That seems to be in line with the views of the community
