I have made 2 triggers that are identical. One is near the beginning of the game and it works. The other one triggers later in the game but the Display Text action doesn't work. However, all the other actions worked just fine. Any idea what's the problem?

Trigger
Players
1-6
Condition
When Force 1 brings atleast 1 men to trigger 1
Action
Player combeep.wav
display text message: Message 1

Since one trigger triggers later in the game, maybe some triggers in between messed it up?

Nope, doesnt work. The weird thing is, there are triggers like that after the second one and those work for some reason. Yet, they are in the exact format.

the one later in the game belongs to someone who isn't suppose to receive the message...or i can't figure it out(unless something is clearing the screen but even so you should see a flash of it)

Maybe put it in another trigger section? Might just be the trigger that's later on.

It's very possable to clear the screen without the player seeing it at all. I think most likely it is owned by the wrong player.

that or your being mislead to thinking the trigger fires or the text doesn't. Ither something else is overwritting the text or the trigger is not fireing at all. (that is assumeing the trigger is owned by the player who should see the text)

Post the map if these last several comments have not helped.

Edit:
are there any actions in the second trigger. Such as "move all men for force 1 to location?
