Thread: Proper use of centerprint command?

You can use the message_print.scr built in to the game, it works like this:

exec global/message_print.scr::message "My Message Goes Here" NIL 10

//*** displays text in the center of the screen
//*** mainly used for hint text (default), but can be for anything
//*** syntax --------------------------------
//*** message <string> [no hint text | non-NIL - will display, NIL - won't display] [time to leave message up, default 5 | 0 - means default]

Or you can use a location print, just have to play around with the location until you get the center of the screen,

self stufftext "locationprint 500 50 My-Message-Cant-Have-Spaces-This-Way"

centerprint works same way as locationprint, via stufftext and replacing spaces with dashes or underscores

local.text = "Hello_World";
local.player stufftext ("centerprint " + local.text);
