Small possible error in 1.3pb6.2

[JonathanS]

I was working on updating one of my mods when I stumbled upon a possible problem. It's not major, but I thought to bring it to GSH's attention.

Using the BZScripter I used to the following command:

Code: Select all

DisplayFile,"mission1.txt",white

Instead of displaying the text inside the file like it used too, it simply shows the file name in the objective block. Thoughts?

[Red Devil]

haven't used it; all the scripts i'm working on use Display

[Ded10c]

Display does seem to work better, even for large blocks of text.

[General BlackDragon]

should use C++

But try not putting the filename in ""'s?

[JonathanS]

I am using Display now, but since none of you can reproduce, oh, well.

@generalblackdragon, yeah, but I don't have time to learn it.

[General BlackDragon]

sure you do

all of the mission source code is available, you just look at how they did it.

[Zero Angel]

Try using single quotes instead of double quotes and see if that makes a difference. Shell code can be finicky like that -- scriptor code might be different but it's worth a try.

Thanks, Zero Angel. I'll try that out in my development.
