So I am going through and working on a static housing package and am slowly rewriting and moving stuff over to using cliloc messages, I have a few questions with regards to PrintTextAbovePrivateCL and PrintTextAboveCL.

In both instances, when it prints the message above the item it is says:
"System: Lockdown Failed"

where as PrintTextAbove (thus not using the clilocs but a custom string) would normally read out in the journal as:
"a robe: Lockdown Failed"

Is there a fix for this on my end? Or can this be fixed in the PrintTextAboveCL and PrintTextAbovePrivateCL functions? Or am I just stuck with the System thing?

Obviously I am hoping it can be fixed somehow and yes, I know I am a nutcase for using clilocs

On a more broader question, SendSysMessageCL, PrintTextAboveCL and PrintTextAbovePrivateCL do not seem to want to accept a different font type, anyone else have this issue (I presume I am probably one of the many few who are using clilocs)? I and Yukiko both tried many different things to get the aforementioned cliloc message functions to accept a different font but alas, our efforts were in vain.

Well, it looks like "System" is hard-coded in the core https://github.com/polserver/polserver/ ... nc.cpp#L54 which is a lot different of how it's handled for non-CL messages https://github.com/polserver/polserver/ ... .cpp#L1329. I would suggest making the CL one function like the non-CL, taking the object's description instead of hard-coded "System".

As far as the the font-type issue... That, I do not know. It appears to be passed from the module to the packet properly from a data flow perspective.

@ThisIsMe, this has been addressed in the most recent commit.

Fixed: PrintTextAbove*CL() now behaves similarly to PrintTextAbove*() functions, displaying the object's description instead of "System".

Thanks, to be clear, this also addresses the printtextaboveprivatecl?

I'm sorry to be a bother about trivial matters.

Yes

Kevin, I am not seeing that commit. The last one Git Desktop for Windows is showing is a month ago by Nando. The Git repo for polserver website shows it but Git Desktop doesn't. Hmmm....

Must have had something to do with the merge of the two branches because I see it when I click on the "blip" denoting the merge.
