[Genhis][2.0.11] Flying text is shown duplicate on remote control

Post by Gerkiz »

Hi,

As per title, when trying to remote control a car from a different surface, the text: "vehicle cannot be driven remotely." is shown on multiple surfaces.

IIRC it's not drawn on multiple services, it's just drawn on the surface you are, regardless of where it was created originally.

So maybe this is more of an interface request to add surface` parameter to create_local_flying_text(), which I think would be very useful.

I'm not so sure you're understanding the issue correctly.
I'm not drawing/creating anything, it's the base game that is popping up those flying texts whenever I interact with the car via `remote view`.

If I remember correctly rseding fixed another issue where this happened with selection rectangles, so it's probably something like this again.
