Tesla trap messages part 2 #50

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Further description of the enhancement:

Make tesla traps use UTIL_HudMessage.

Is this enhancement being created to fix another bug?:

Yes.

If so, what bug?:

The current system uses ClientPrint and has no control over how long a message 
remains on screen. This means that to clear a message, we have to send the 
message ' '. If we use UTIL_HudMessage, all we have to do is set the message 
hold time to something like 0.5 seconds, then re-send the message (something 
like "Press use to pick up tesla trap") every 0.45 seconds (or something like 
that).
