Do you mean "What is useful about overlapping?" Overlapping makes letters/words go over eachother. It makes a cool effect.

Employez l'anglais approprié en signalant s'il vous plait.
Use proper English when posting please!

Nous ne savons pas que vous dites.
We do not know what you are saying.

I'm guessing you are asking what is so useful about overlapping?

Nothing, it's just a gay effect people like to use in their maps. There is nothing useful about it.

In your tutorial Rexy, you said anything above 3x is impossible ingame. That's not true, Cloak did 4x on unit name, I remember it, and this was about a year ago...

Okay, well, I lose.
I haven't stacked in over three months anyway, and I sumbitted that tutorial around two weeks ago.

Until someone decides to not be greedy and post how to do it, I guess the tutorial stays that way.

Everyone needs to be re-educated about the so-called "overlapping" characters. They are really alignment characters. One will align the following text to the center of the screen, and the other aligns it to the right side of the screen. When you combine these marks with text that is long enough, you can force text off the edge of the screen which causes it to appear on the next line (and one pixel lower). Carefully spacing things, you can make this second line of text appear directly underneath the original line of text.

There ya go. The alignment mark in question is placed as the first character of each line. Sorry for the misspelling of "alignment" in the second line - I'm slightly inebriated and there's nothing I can do about it now.
