FS#5675 - Pop-up messages on other chars tells you smth
It’s very easy to miss tells, greetings and etc. For example if I talk with NPC, NPC tab in chat selected. Other char comes and tries to start dialog with me. As I read what NPC says, I miss blinking in the Main tab, so I ignore that char. As for RP, it seems that I’m very impolite because ignoring other chars. Adding popup for messages addressed to me solve this problem and I can immediately(if I want) reply to char.
My suggestion(technical background):
- on each command like <CMD> <TO_PERSON_NAME> generate event with message(tell, greet, etc.)
- this message shows in the main view like other notifications
- this popups can be toggled off in settings
Another Suggestion, to have a mixed Chat Tab.
Where any message comes in with the channel name at first. Like.
[Main] xxxxx greets yyyyyy
[NPC] Npc says xxxxxxxx
[gossip] XxX sings
[Main] yyyyy waves
-Edit-
I figured out, it actually works that way, when you configure your Chatwindow at Options-Chat.
Then you got all channels at the Main chat, can talk with the NPC's, see her Messages and others from other Channels
