I remember a while ago I was playing a ums and some kid in the game started scrolling messages on the screen, the "Waiting for players:" disc. screen popped up and he continued to spam the message (even though you can't hit enter or type when this screen is up). I was wondering if anyone had any ideas how you could do this...

All you have to do is hack - typing with that screen up is just blocked by the default starcraft gui.

I know that much, but I don't understand how I could make something to get around that

You could just not display it, and instead have a nice textual notification appear for when it would normally be displayed/removed.

thers a program that fleet made called SP@M This... thats probably what the user was using when he spamed int he game... i dont know his url off hand cuz i dont support hacks but you could prolly ask someone or do a search on it...

I don't want a program that does it for me, I want to know how the program does it...

If that's the program he used, it most likely just sends the messages no matter what screen is up in your game.

well, I did it a long time ago with SendKeys(), but that's really gross and it didn't work when the disconnect screen was up.  I tryed lookin it up again and the only thing I found that looks like it might work used code injection. does anyone know of an easier way?

No, you'll have to inject code or data into Starcraft's stuff.
