textdraw fade in screencenter

Gonna try it

is this the correct negation of player xy in xy?

if (player.x !in |this.x-10,this.x+10| && player.y !in |this.y-5,this.y+5|) {

You can't negate in like that, try:

PHP Code:

if (!(player.x in |this.x-10, this.x+10| && player.y in |this.y-5, this.y+5|)) { 


(If you could, you'd probably want to use || instead of && by De Morgan's laws. Unless I'm misinterpreting what you're trying to do.)

|| = or
&& = and

player.x != player.y 8-D

Ok now I tried this, but it isnt fading in nor fading out, just permanently onscreen

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated(){
  dontblock();
  layer = 2;
  temp.fimg = findimg(375);
  fimg.x = screenwidth / 2;
  fimg.y = screenheight / 2 - 180;
  fimg.text = "Era Underground Complex Level 2";
  fimg.layer = 8;
  fimg.zoom = 2;
  fimg.style = "bc";
  fimg.textshadow = true;
  fimg.shadowcolor = {0,0,0};
}
function onTimeOut() {
  checkArea();
  setTimer(0.05);
}
function checkArea() {
  if (player.x in |this.x-10,this.x+10| && player.y in |this.y-5,this.y+5|) {
    if (!this.showed) { // If the image hasn't been displayed since their last entrance
      this.showed = true; // Flag it as displayed
      onFadeIn(); // Start fading in
    }
  } else {
    if (this.showed) { // If it was displayed already
      this.showed = false; // Unset it, since they're no longer inside
    }
  }
}
function onFadeIn() {
  if (player.x in |this.x-10,this.x+10| && player.y in |this.y-5,this.y+5|) {
    this.img.alpha += 0.05; // 0.05 is a placeholder, it will take num * 20 seconds to fully fade in, so @ 0.05 it will take 1 second
    if (this.img.alpha < 1) { // If it isn't fully visible yet
      scheduleEvent(0.05, temp.name, nil); // THIS 0.05 is not a placeholder, it is the tick rate of graal - this will "loop" the fade in
    } else {
      onPause(3); // '3' is up to you, it's how long it will appear to "hang," this creates the "pausing"
    }
  } else {
    onFadeOut(); // If the player left the area, stop fading in and start fading out instead
  }
}
function onPause(timeLeft) {
  if (player.x in |this.x-10,this.x+10| && player.y in |this.y-5,this.y+5|) {
    if (timeLeft > 0) {
      scheduleEvent(0.05, temp.name, timeLeft - 0.05); // Keep counting down if the player is inside and there's time left to pause.
    } else {
      onFadeOut(); // Once time runs out, fade out
    }
  } else {
    onFadeOut(); // If player isn't still in area, pre-maturely fade out.
  }
}
function onFadeOut() {
  if (!(player.x in |this.x-10,this.x+10| && player.y in |this.y-5,this.y+5|)) {
    this.img.alpha -= 0.05; // Lower the alpha back down, remember: this 0.05 is a placeholder
    if (this.img.alpha > 0) { // While it's not 0 yet
      scheduleEvent(0.05, temp.name, nil); // Keep looping to decrease it
    }
  } // No need to put an else {} here to check if they re-enter the area. If they re-enter the area, this will fail and onFadeIn() will be called by checkArea()
}
