Hi,
I wanted to make a "basic" notification system for my game, and messed it a bit up.
I can't still find a way out.
For example i want to make something like this:

I just want to know how to make a incoming message displaying at the right bottom of my screen.
But how? Im not a good scripter in GUI things

Please reply if you know a solution for it

 

There is an excellent (and inspiring) plugin for Unity which is a GUI-messaging system and much more: ScoreFlash.

You should definitely check it out!

 

WOW, Wow, wow, I think thats to difficult for me to understand.
I'd like to know how to make a "simple" script in Unity.

 

A simple way to do this is by using a coroutine. The coroutine will show a GUI element for X amount of time and then hide it. If you want it to tween the movement/alpha etc, these are more complicated features you can research.

E.g.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.  
3. bool showNotification = false;
4. string notificationToShow = "This is a notification";
5.  
6. void OnGUI(){
7.         if(showNotification){
8.                 //Shows a notification in the bottom right of the screen, with text notificationToShow
9.                 GUI.Box(new Rect(Screen.width - 205, Screen.Height - 105, 200, 100), notificationToShow);
10.         }
11. }
12.  
13.  
14. //Shows the notification for 2 seconds then hides it
15. IEnumerator ShowNotification () {
16.         showNotification = true;
17.         yield return new WaitForSeconds(2.0f);
18.         showNotification = false;
19. }
20.  
21. //Usage
22. void SomeMethod(){
23.         if(doneSomething){
24.                 notificaitonToShow = "You've done something";
25.                 StartCouroutine(ShowNotification ());
26.         }
27. }
28.
