SetMessage("CategoryName", "TextName", [TimeItIsDisplayed]);

Example:

SetMessage("Hints", "Hint01", 3);

Code: (Select All)

<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name="Hints">
<Entry Name="Hint01">This is a message.</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>

what is wrong? please answere

[Kyle]

The thing below is wrong.

Code: (Select All)

void what(string &in asParent , string &in asChild , int alState)
{
SetMessage("Hints", "Hint01", 2.0f");
}

It should be:

Code: (Select All)

void what(string &in asParent , string &in asChild , int alState)
{
SetMessage("Hints", "Hint01", 2.0f);
}
