Cr4zyFl4mes Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 The title kind of says it all. I travel between caves and overworld a lot and miss a lot of messages. And the people writing them miss on somebody that might actually respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowDuelist Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 This. When I play on my dedicated server I can "cheat" this by looking at the chat logs once the migration ended. Sometimes a lot of important stuff would have been lost to me. A simple solution would be that by pressing Y to type, the system would show the last 4 or 5 non-whisper chat lines that exist in the log, regardless if you were present when they were said or not. If not implemented, maybe it can be made into a mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaZoul Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Same. I want that stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though i play on vanilla servers too, so It would be best if they implemented it. Sounds exactly like something for QoL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigfootmech Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I was thinking yesterday, "Man, Klei's really done a good job on a lot of the new QOL updates". The unlimited server slots, disease turned off, caves enabled by default, shift-right click by default instead of being a mod... Like loads of really amazing (small, but incredibly useful) things. And was like, they're really on top of it. Then I got to thinking, well, there's one thing that would actually be really nice too. Seeing what people type while transitioning to&from caves :o. I did some testing, and for my setup, there's about a 20-30 second window where I can't see messages in game. If I'm transferring to the server where chat is happening, this can be mitigated (about 5-10s loss instead of 20-30) by reading the client chat log. If I'm traveling away from server where the messages are being sent (ie: I'm going to caves, when someone is talking above ground), it's pretty much a bust I think this would be a great quality of life improvement.

Mike23Ua Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I want to bump this thread because this would be a good all around QoL thing to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
. . . Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I would also like option to be able to choose what size the chat text is and how long it remains on the screen in addition to these that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARTH Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 there should be a log/chat window, like press T to open the log window, and we can see all the logs+timestamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesmu Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I agree, that needs to be polished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfootmech Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I've started working on a mod patch for this. I don't expect it to fully work, but at least for the time being (until it hopefully gets patched in vanilla), it's something rather than nothing. I also don't know how to keep you guys updated. Or what's the most appropriate method. Currently, I'm just releasing to Steam, updating that forum thread. and posting on friends' discord servers. Do you get a notification when a message gets updated? (rather than new replies being made) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
