regions (hotspots)

[michaelp8]

when a character stands on a ready made region and the Word Bump is displayed it takes ages for the player to continue to its cordinates

I don't quite understand the problem. When you walk onto a region, you want it to display "Bump", but it's causing a slow down in the game?

How are you doing it at the moment? Are you using While player stands on region or When player walks onto region? If it's While player stands on region, then AGS will keep displaying the message as long as you stand on the region, which will cause it to 'lock'. Try moving it to When player walks onto region instead.

EDIT: Looking at the title: Are you even using regions, or the obsolete Player stands on hotspot interaction? This acts like While player stands on region - repeatedly calling the command. Try replacing it with a region, and using When player walks onto region.

If that's not the problem could you post agian, with more details, what you've already tried and where you put it.
