Whenever I try to make a transmission in the mission briefing, the text only shows up for like half a second. The sound keeps playing, but the text disappears too fast. This happens with every map whenever I try to make a transmission in the mission briefing. Anyone know why?

Err. You gotta put "Show for however long."

Add a wait action after the text.

I've tried all that. I set the transmission to like 40 seconds and added a 10 second wait, but it still goes away.

If the transmission is 40 seconds, then you need a 40 second wait to display all of it. Also, how long has it been since you updated your SCM Draft?

I just downloaded the file from the scmdraft thread like 3 days ago. Also, transmissions do act as waits in mission briefings. The wav continues to play; it's just the text that disappears.

If the text length exceeds a certain amount, I know it doesn't display. Try making a simple 1 letter text and see if it works?

post it, copy someone else's briefing/don't use a briefing. Nobody reads them anyway.

It's true. Don't spend much times on the briefing, maybe just reiterate some things. 5 minutes should be spent, tops. Nobody reads them - in fact you'll be yelled at if you do.

It's the mission briefings for my campaign. They're pretty important. >_>

EDIT: I took rockz's advice and copied it from the original missions, and now it works! Problem solved.
