CyberWoLfman Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 Low priority, but, might be nice for some of us with less-than-perfect eyesight: Any chance of creating a keyword alert for the chat window, which might prove useful for some of us who're a bit on the ancient side and can't read as fast as others? This could prove useful if you could set it to alert you with a sound and with the word (or phrase) highlighted in the text. The character's name would be one good example and you can also set it to alert you when someone says something like the name of a TF/SF/Trial or enemies you need to defeat for a badge comes up in chat. 2 💡City of Heroes Homecoming Server Tips for New Players 👍 (Includes details on the LFG queueing trick!) 🚀 TP Hubs for each shard: 😁 Excelsior shard TP hub with sorted zones and NPCs for your use: /macroimage archetypeicon_peacebringer SG_TP_RaDiCaL_(Tech_Theme) enter_base_from_passcode RADICAL-7910 # # # Torchbearer shard TP hub with sorted zones and NPCs for your use: /macroimage originicon_magic SG_TP_AllOurBase_(Arcane_Theme) enter_base_from_passcode ALLOURBASE-7287 # # # Reunion shard TP hub with sorted zones and NPCs for your use: /macroimage originicon_magic SG_TP_Introverts_(Arcane_Theme) enter_base_from_passcode INTROVERTS-3357 # # # Everlasting (the unofficial RP shard, and, yes, the base is MEANT to be a little 'over-the-top' LOL) TP hub with sorted zones and NPCs for your use: /macroimage originicon_magic SG_TP_SHADOWS_(Arcane_Theme) enter_base_from_passcode SHADOWS-10030 # # # Indomitable shard with NPCs right at the entrance and the teleports just down the hallway and to the left (follow the arrows): /macroimage archetypeicon_peacebringer SG_TP_ToTaLLY_RaD_(Tech_Theme) enter_base_from_passcode RAD-5896 👽 Some of my characters in City of Heroes 🐺
WanderingAries Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 I 'think' you can do it with the "My Activity Streams" thing above. It has a spot for keywords I believe.

General Idiot Posted January 25, 2020 Posted January 25, 2020 That's the forums. The suggestion is to be able to do something similar with the in game chat window. Which would be amazing if they could. When life gives you lemonade, make lemons. Life will be all like "What?" [Admin] Emperor Marcus Cole: STOP! [Admin] Emperor Marcus Cole: WAIT ONE SECOND!

VileTerror Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 While not a direct fix, one could theoretically code up a simple Java/C++/VisualBasic/whatever program to periodically check the automatic logged .TXT files in your CoH/[account name] folder, and pop-up a reminder or play a sound whenever a keyword is detected. Just sharing the potential solution in case someone wants to make a third-party program to do exactly that. Would get you what you need quicker than waiting for the Homecoming Team to consider attempting it in-game.
