Half Life crashes every time my multi_manager triggers the game_text. There is nothing wrong with the setup here. What you see is what I have in my map, so what the fuck could possibly be going on? Please answer as fast as possible, thank you.

I just searched the forum--not before dicking around with a test map for 30 minutes!--and found that you have to tick the all players flag for it to work. (which sucks, because it would be cool to be able to give indivdualized messages in a MP game

None of you guys knew that? Gosh... :

Still, I've never had Half-Life crash just because I didn't check that flag.

And rowley, I thought they were individualized in multiplayer, but they just didn't show up in single player without that flag checked. I could be wrong though.

Also, the game can crash if the text entered in the game_text is too long. Use n to start a new line.

Yeah, but I don't think "World Crafter proudly presents" is long enough to need two lines.

Thank you so much. Now I have to get back to work.
