Summary0012542: Message Log Window covers parts of popups as well as in game portion of the map
DescriptionMessage Log Window covers parts of popups as well as in game portion of the map.
I would suggest making the message log optional,by having a check box in the game values screen or have a cycle through option where it shows small, then large and then not at all.

This is minor, but very, very irritating.

It should be on by default, though. If people don't know it's there they will miss a lot of information the game is telling them, and newbies won't know they can turn it on.

Please understand I probably made a mistake in classifying this when i put it in. I put it in as a suggestion, but i really think now its not a suggestion for a feature as much as it is a minor problem.

I think that having a key combo that would make the message log not visible (much like the re-sizable menu in AVWW) or if there were a checkbox in the game options to either show it or not show it. That would cover having it default to how it is now, but have the player be able to remove it from the game screen during play if they so choose.

If you can think of something that you prefer, but would still allow me to close or hide the message log, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks for listening,

Thanks!

* The message log now has two new options: DISAPPEARS AFTER A BIT and OFF. The former works like most other Arcen games do, and the latter simply removes it entirely.
