Title: Battle messages?
Post by: Kajotex on May 25, 2008, 05:54:00 am

Hi there

Quick question: what is the tool to show battle messages in fortress mode?
So stuff that shows you what lungs have been pierced and that.
Also: quick use-manual pleez

[a]nnoncements lets you watch what just happened in adventure mode, otherwise use the keybindings in-game ^^

*ahem*

Battle logs don't show up in Fortress Mode. That thread'll point you towards some tools that switch it on.

I personally use the one from the DFFD that's the combat log from Dwarf Companion minus everything else. And remember to only switch in on during sieges or ambushes - message spam from sparring Dwarves gets overwhelming (it's a toggle, as far as I've been told, so you can easy switch on and off without having to restart DF, apparently)
