comment

Displays a trigger message to player.

The text line fades out in the end.

bug

Changing x or y moves the entire text box, including previously displayed lines. An example is shown at Luashine/DisplayTextToPlayer-position

note

The text lines are bottom-left aligned: text continues to the right and new lines continue upwards.

note

This is equivalent to DisplayTimedTextToPlayer with duration of StringLength(message) * 0.1 + 3.0.
