I know this is probably one of the most easiest questions, but I'm VERY NEW to scripting and I know what type of game I'm going to make but I really need to learn how to do this to start it off. Thank you so much! :) Sorry I don't know what some of the tags mean, but I did my best.
Create a message or hint, wait a few seconds, and then remove it. See this page: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=How_to_Utilize_ROBLOX_Messages
Not quite sure what you mean by this, And im new to scripting aswell but I have an idea of what is needed for it to work im just not entirely sure how to script it. But...
You'll need a timer, a set of words and the print function..
m=Instance.new("Message")--Change to hint if you want the banner at the top of the screen. m.Parent=game.Workspace m.Text="What ever text you want" wait(3)--How long you want it too appear m:Destroy()
Then you can use an event to determine when it pops up.
