What is no time is specified, is there a default time that the message stays up? --User:Blakestr

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

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] ?

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. —mmmpld 00:46, 6 April 2006 (EDT)

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.

I want to know the answer to this too, is there a way to output the reference in a message?--Omzy 00:41, 10 June 2006 (EDT)

A reference-variable isn't just the FormID or we could use unsigned longs instead. It's rather a pointer structure of which the FormID is just one element. So no, I don't think there's any way for a script to access the FormID-value of a reference. --JOG 04:45, 10 June 2006 (EDT)
