Idk if someone ever used BrushBuilder native functions at runtime, but BadParameters() displays an informative os window even while playing.
I don't know much about C yet, but if I try displaying a character followed by '%' it gets replaced by something else:
tQtOeT7w10E

This is the code:

Code: Select all

local CubeBuilder testBB;
	
	testBB = new class'CubeBuilder';
	testBB.BadParameters("STRING TO DISPLAY GOES HERE");
	testBB = None;

Also, if the viewport window is not on fullscreen, it won't minimize to system tray when the informative window appears.

I guess the usual format identifier are used: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printf_format_string
Because the UScript function definition of BadParameters() allows only one parameter (the message itself) and no dynamic value array, I guess that the values you have seen are random stack values. Did the values change on different sessions?

PS: Have you tried "%s" also? May be a funny display value... ^^

%f never changes, it's always 0.00000 . (1:00 in the vid)

Yes, on 0:57, but then it displayed nothing after I tried again.
