Title: Announcement Spam (npc conversations)
Post by: oldbone on September 18, 2019, 07:49:52 pm

So, haven't played in years... just setup the LNP and it spawns Announcement Window+ which is cool.
But when NPCs chat in a busy town, or when there is a huge combat - I have to keep hitting SPACE to cycle thru the *more* on the main DF window.

Anyway to ship all of that off to the Announcement Window+ ?

Should be controlled by REGULAR_CONVERSATION in announcements.txt.

Thanks, I was more looking for help with Announcement Window+ however.

I'd love to setup exactly what they state in their readme (but not sure how):

"
You can edit the type of announcements that are shown in the two separate displays. For example,
the first window could be set up to show announcements (```a```) and the other could show a live
feed of your combat reports (```r```). No more pausing the game!

There should be options somewhere (right-click?) that let you choose what shows up in a given display. I'm not sure whether conversations is one of the default checkboxes.
