How to add messages upon entering an area??

[Genesis]

I want to create a message that shows up on players screens upon entering an area.

example: when you enter a hemp field I want it to say Right click your machete to harvest hemp.

Thanks in advance

You can do this by going to your mission file and going to mission.sqm and adding in a new class sensor be careful when editing these because one left out } or ; will break the server you also need to change the total of number of sensors above the first listed one and sensors start at 0 and go up so if you have 0-7 you actually have 8 sensors total. It's basically the same way it tells you that you are entering a trader city etc.

 

Examle of a sensor: 

 

class Item10

{

position[]={4980.1,0.1,8280.28};

a=50;

b=50;

activationBy="ANY";

repeating=1;

interruptable=1;

age="UNKNOWN";

name="hempfield";

expCond="(vehicle player) in thislist;";

expActiv="TitleText[""Entering Hemp Field"",""PLAIN DOWN""];    //And if you'd like to activate a script to do certain things like provide god mode or protection of a certain area you can replace this with this expActiv="hempfield = [] execVM ""protection\hempfield.sqf"";";

expDesactiv="terminate dome; titleText [""Leaving Hemp Field"", ""PLAIN DOWN"", 3];";

class Effects

{

};

 

But plenty other guides out there explaining linking a script to do certain events to a sensor. Maybe this gets you in the right direction.
