[SOLVED]TextDraw is dispalyed very weird - BiosMarcel - 03.01.2017

Hey,

So, i have created a new TextDraw, it is displayed like this:

Now, the weird part:

PHP код:



initMapInfoTextDraw()

{

    mapInfoTextDraw = TextDrawCreate(1.000000, 431.000000, "");

    TextDrawBackgroundColor(mapInfoTextDraw, 255);

    TextDrawFont(mapInfoTextDraw, 2);

    TextDrawLetterSize(mapInfoTextDraw, 0.240000, 0.899999);

    TextDrawColor(mapInfoTextDraw, -1);

    TextDrawSetOutline(mapInfoTextDraw, 1);

    TextDrawSetProportional(mapInfoTextDraw, 1);

}

This is the method that creates the TextDraw, but it is never called, also, i am never showing the TextDraw.
How is this even Possible? Also the Alive Players TextDraw is totally stretched (the black box). Hope someone has some ideas.

greetings Marcel

Ok, it is "fixed".

It seems like there were multiple samp server processes running and they couldn't be killed, restarted the VPS and everything is fine now.

Text must not be empty. Use a space or an underscore.

That was not the problem, i had tried that tho. I am setting it as soon as the first map is loaded which happens on startup, so thats fine anyways. Thanks tho!

The server would crash if it was actually empty (at least that's what the wiki says, I don't think it was fixed). Probably he is using the fixes include, as it prevents this mistake.

text[] must NOT be empty or the server will crash! If you need a textdraw that shows nothing, use " " (a space) or _ (underscore). Now it's fixed.

Yeah, kind of a fail, should be edited (i'd like to do that ... but noooo you can't create new accounts because of trolls!)
