Centerprint is a quake c function that allows center-justified text to be printed to the middle of the game window.

defs.qc declaration[edit | edit source]

void(entity client, string s, optional string s1, optional string s2, optional string s3, optional string s4, optional string s5, optional string s6, optional string s7) centerprint = #73;    // sprint, but in middle

Notes[edit | edit source]

In English, at one resolution, centerprint produces an at most 52-character-wide column of characters to the screen. As more characters are added new lines push the block downward off the bottom of the screen appearing on top of the game HUD
