~~NOTOC~~ <=[[4rpl:start| Index]] ====== SetUnitDebugText ====== SetUnitDebugText(<-unit <-text) ===== Description ===== Sets a text to appear above a unit. This text can be used instead of, or in conjunction with [[SetObjText]] to display some text above a unit. It is directly attached to the unit and cannot be re-positioned. Although being labeled as "debug", it can be used in non-editor gameplay. For example, the game uses it to display the out-of-ammo message for the Airship.\\ Both this API and [[SetObjText]] have access to all compatible formats in CW4. If you plan to resize the text, you will need to use the format "" after resizing as the changed size of text will not scale it's line-height correctly without intervention. Typically; "" solves this problem entirely. Unlike [[SetObjText]], new lines will be created so you won't need to manually add formats like "
".\\ The full list of formats in CW4 can be found in the [[cw4:a.d.a_syntax_syntax_guide|A.D.A. Message editor format]] guide. The text displayed by SetUnitDebugText is cleared upon game reload. If needed, it is recommended to re-apply the text display inside the [[func_awake|:Awake]] function. ===== Examples ===== SetUnitDebugText(Self "text goes here") === See Also === [[4rpl:start#Debugging]] <=[[4rpl:start| Index]]
