Buck the trend! Live in the PAST as well as the PRESENT! Be able to see chat messages from over 15 seconds ago! Now works with TEAM CHAT! Inspired by thedbp's mod that stops chat disappearing altogether, I decided to have a go at improving the chat system as well. This mod makes it so that the chat log appears when you press enter (i.e. when the chat input box appears). It currently doesn't account for different length messages when figuring out how many to show (without overflowing over the player names), but I might try to fix that. How to install 1. Download this archive. 2. Check version numbers! The .txt file in the archive will have a number, which MUST match PA's, otherwise, wait for me to update it. 3. Extract live_game_alpha.js, replacing the default (usually located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Planetary Annihilation\PA\media\ui\alpha\live_game).
Re: [REL] Chat log - no more losing messages!* [v.50083] Danke, I sound like a deaf old senile when I'm like "Whaaaat?" "Come again?"
Yep, it seems every update breaks it, so I'll update it for every update so you can update with the update! And I made the first post clearer!
I've build a version of this that is version "independent" http://nanodesu.info/stuff/pa/mods/chatmod.zip EDIT: Keeps working in 518**
