Console Message on maps

[Riperzz]

Hey! When on most ze maps theres console saying like "(CONSOLE): Hold elevator 30 seconds!"
But how i add that on map??? I cant find anything.

This can be done with triggers or auto_logic's or simply pressing a button.
Do you generally know how to use/make outputs ?
If so, then it's easy for you to understand.

Ofcours you need a point_servercommand.

For Example: On the beginning of each round a message triggers.
So make an auto_logic and goto outputs:
Onnewgame
commander
command
say here comes your text, also don't use commas; it breaks your text. And leave a space after 'say'.

That's all for your logic.
Now make a point_servercommand
Name it; commander

Now you're done. It's fully oparationel.

It's an entitie.
Click on the Entitie tool on the left in hammer.
So I'm pretty sure you just started mapping, You can search for any tuts on fpsb (http://www.fpsbanana.com/tutcats/6). ( Really helpfull)
Also Halfwit-2 (http://www.halfwit-2.com/?page=tutorials) is a great site to learn of.
And interloopers.net (http://www.interlopers.net/tutorials/)

Yes only when you test it on a real server it i'll work.
Btw that's what I ment, logic_auto.

Ok, Thanks for help.

You can also do it like this:

Make trigger around spawn area(trigger_once),then make point_Clientcommand name it "joe".
Go in trigger outputs and make it:
OnStartTouch
Joe
Say "whaazaaa"

and thats about it.

Don't do triggers, its much more better to use the entity "Logic_Auto" I use to use trigger instead of logic_auto because I never heard of it. Using trigger makes it messier as it is hard to edit things around, so use logic_auto.

P.S. Isn't it "OnMapSpawn" not "OnNewGame"?

Maybe that fixes it, i have to try

I doesn't really matter what you use.

Onnewgame means it'll trigger every new round.
Onmapspawn it should acually only trigger the first round.

Then i have no idea why it dont work :/

Like he said before, it will (probably) only work once you get it on a real server, so all you can do is cross your fingers. gl.
