I have following script in a room... ... here is how it goes: A user clicks a button(containing script underneath here) and a localMsg appears at another spot where an image pops up for the duration of a three part message:
| Code: | import manor
msg1 = "@575,145 text1"
msg2 = "@575,145 text2"
msg3 = "@575,145 text3"
def mnr_spothit(spotID):
manor.setTimer(manor.tickcount()+10, manor.localMsg, msg1)
manor.setTimer(manor.tickcount()+800, manor.localMsg, msg2)
manor.setTimer(manor.tickcount()+2000, manor.localMsg, msg3)
return |
It has always worked.... now it doesn't. Here is what happens... first and second message looks like this:
Finally 3rd message looks as it should:
All 3 message texts however pops up in log as they should with the time intervals as specified in script.
Can anyone shed some light?

| arrg, that looks to be a rendering bug in the balloon code. Will have to dupe and chase it down. |

I might add that using same script for a single message in a one spot situation (a button user clicks and it should provide a chatballoon with info) doesn't show at all, only the log message.
It is kinda important for navigational and informational guidance, especially if considering new users not in habit of having logwindow open.
Cheers,
