Hud Messages to disappear after passing a line?

Recommended Posts

I want to make a note/letter the player can read, and for it to disappear when they walk away from it. How can this be done, because I've tried a few things, but no luck.

Make sure your Message has an id, and set it's Hold time 0, and when you want to hide that message use another Hudmessage with the same id but with a different Hold time.

HudMessage(s:"Hello there"; HUDMSG_PLAIN, 1555, CR_RED, 0.1, 0.9, 0); //a Message with id 1555 and Hold time 0 causes the message to stay forever



HudMessage(s:" "; HUDMSG_PLAIN, 1555, CR_RED, 0.1, 0.9, 0.1); //a empty Message with id 1555 and Hold time 0.1 replaces the text using the same id with an empty message that disappears after 0.1 seconds.

It worked, thanks for that!
