I'm not quite sure how this works correctly, but what exactly has to be done to make that text effect where it looks like the text has a bit of animation with it, such as...

H|

He|

Hel|

Hell|

Hello|

Hello.|

Hello..|

Hello...|

I give this example because it makes it look like the text it typing its way onto the screen, but I don't want to have the previous message showing up on top. I guess what the main question is, how many lines should be skipped in order to erase a previous text message?



None.

None.

11 lines can be displayed on a screen at one time, so put like 10 lines before the text. Also, this would have been easy enough to test it out yourself.



None.

There are exactly 11 lines that SC can display at once.

Damn you Fwop_! :P

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.
