:Definitely. I'll have to test to give you an exact figure, but it certainly does have a default time. --[[User:JT|JT]] 15:01, 31 March 2006 (EST) | |||

[[User:Tegid|Tegid]] 23:42, 5 April 2006 (EDT): Does Message support 10 variables like MessageBox or just the two as per the example? If ten, should we put [var1], ... ,[var10] or something similar in place of [var1], [var2] ? | [[User:Tegid|Tegid]] 23:42, 5 April 2006 (EDT): Does Message support 10 variables like MessageBox or just the two as per the example?

I'm the one who added the 10 max information to MessageBox based upon the CS warning "max variables of 10 exceeded". However I just tested both Message and MessageBox and the max is actually 9. I'll edit Message and MessageBox to reflect this. I think keep the example as "[var1], [var2]"; it's less confusing, and once you work out how to do two more should be simple. —[[User:Mmmpld|mmmpld]] 00:46, 6 April 2006 (EDT) | :I'm the one who added the 10 max information to MessageBox based upon the CS warning "max variables of 10 exceeded".

[[User:Tegid|Tegid]] 01:06, 6 April 2006 (EDT): So the next question is, is there a format command to display References? The %f commands aren't doing it. Neither does %h %l or %r though %r actually prints an r and the others print nothing. | [[User:Tegid|Tegid]] 01:06, 6 April 2006 (EDT): So the next question is, is there a format command to display References?

[[User:Ericpar|Ericpar]] 20:31, 14 August 2006 (EDT) Has anyone actually tested the DisplaySeconds parameter? Becuase no matter what value I supply for this parameter, the message always stays up for its default duration (approx 3 seconds). E.g., "Message 'Hello World', 1" and "Message 'Hello World', 100" behave identically on my system. I have the official 1.1 patch, and I tested this with no mods loaded. If I type "Message 'Hello World', 1.0", it complains that the DisplaySeconds parameter must be an integer, so it definitely takes a parameter for the display time, but the implementation appears to be broken. | |||

[[User:Arthmoor|Arthmoor]] 06:12, 6 September 2009 (EDT) It looks like the message will remain on screen for fQuestDelayTime seconds. I just had a script I'm debugging spam the message display with one set for .01 and it was impossible to read the output. |
