Details

This component displays a gameplay alert message when the specified trigger occurs.

If you want to localize the text, assign Localized Text Table and set Message to the appropriate field name in the table.

The Message may contain Dialogue Markup Tags. For example:

Message: [em1][var=NumBerriesPicked][/em1] Berries Picked!

The Only Once checkbox only works during the current scene. If you want this functionality to persist between level changes or saved games, use a Lua condition instead.
