Alright. I dont know how this happened but my trigger is like this:

Player 8 bings at least 1 (unit) to (location)

Display text message: (xxx)
wait: 2500 ms
Display text message: (xxx)


The problem is with the wait part.
When it says its 2500ms it acts as 12500ms in game.

That's because you have another display text trigger after the wait trigger?

If you have multiple waits then they stack up and take longer.


Or if you are at a slow speed (slower, slowest or even normal) then it goes slower.

All right. I found out the problem. I had 3 different leaderboards that would come up one after the other. They were all 5 seconds apart (5000ms). And so that caused that huge delay in my text messages. But now I need to know how to make those leaderboards switch and not interfere with my waiting time on other triggers.

Use a physical timer instead of waits and use hyper triggers

Well... I need a timer for other parts of the game but I have an idea on how to make it work.

Yes use a physical timer like I said. You can find out how to do that in the FAQ section.

make sure the tirgger is only owned by one player. is it owned by say, 5 players? or a force that has 5 players on it?

accually its the hyper triggers. try this: remove hyper triggers and play the game. then add them back in. shuld work. i dont really know. last time i had to do this is when i made bounds.
ALSO this could be a problem also. u have the hyper triggers in your trigger set or all.

if these both dont work the problem is that u have another wait in triggers and doesnt want to go. very popular in map struggles
