Most modern games have a multiplayer mode or are designed to be networked with other players. The development of telecommunication technologies made it possible to use fast and inexpensive means of communication in everyday life, and playing with other people is still more interesting and difficult than with the artificial intelligence of a computer opponent. Voice channels are currently used to communicate with other players, but text is still the most popular method of communication during the game.
Instructions
Step 1
There are some differences in the use of text messaging services between different games, but the basic principles remain the same. You can consider the methods of text communication in games using the example of the most famous and popular network game WoW.
Step 2
Press the "Enter" button to enter the game messaging service. This action will bring up a text box at the bottom of the screen. The icon in the form of a cloud message on the left side of the game chat window panel will allow you to select recipients of messages and the channels through which it will be distributed. To select a channel, click on the message cloud and select one of the channels among the options provided - “for all”, “only for your faction”, “Defense channel” and others.
Step 3
Enter your message in the text box using the keyboard keys. While entering text, some game functions will be unavailable, since any press on the keyboard will be interpreted as typing text. Press "Enter" again to send the message to the chat. It will be displayed for all players or only for a specific group - it depends on the selected communication channel.
Step 4
You can create a special macro that will allow the player to write messages in multi-colored letters. To do this, enter the "/ macro" command in the chat field, select the name of the macro and its icon in the window that opens, and enter the text of the macro: "/ run_if_ (notscm) then_scm = SendChatMessage end; functionSendChatMessage (msg, typelang, chan) scm (" / XXXXXXXXXXX / 1224Hitem: 19: 0: 0: 0: 0: 0: 0 / 1224..msg.. / 1224h / 1224r, typelang, chan); end; ". The parameter" XXXXXXXXXXX "is responsible for the message color - for example, assigning it the value "12cFFC2C050" will give yellow letters, "12cFFF00000" - red.
