If you know how sync betweek sim and ui works, this should answer your question https://github.com/FAForever/fa/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=printtext if not, let me know.

I've actually created a little wrapper around PrintText in my code to have dependency injection, hide often not needed details, and have named parameters. Funnily enough the named parameters I came up with are exactly the same as those PrintToScreen has :D

Code:
newInstance = function()
    return {
        print = function(str, options)
            options = options or {}
            options.size = options.size or 20
            options.color = options.color or "ffffffff"
            options.duration = options.duration or 5
            options.location = options.location or "center"

            PrintText(str, options.size, options.color, options.duration, options.location);
        end
    }
end

Apparently I missed something when collecting the FAF lua files from all those archives, cause I don't have that file. Perhaps it's possible to set up some automated thing (integrated with the FAF build process maybe) that stuffs all those files into some public repo/place? That'd make things a lot easier to look up for modders and map makers. Alternatively a script that collects all those things from your local machine and stuffs it into a directory... does that already exist maybe?
