Chalkarts Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) I was wondering if it were within the ability of the Programmers to add another setting in the options. I think there is a setting that lets you turn off the "Storage Full" prompt that comes up on the screen. I don't mind the prompts that tell me that my Sotrage/Inspiratins are full. What I would like it a setting to turn off the "Found" prompts. "Inventions Salvage Found" "Recipe Found" those prompts are repetitive and kind of annoying when farming a lot. I appreciate that the system wants to tell me every time I find anything at all, "Loose Pocket Lint Found!" but I really only need to know when I'm out of space. Keep the "Full" notifications, let me turn off all the "Found" notifications. Of course, if this option already exists and I've just missed it, please point me to the right place and disregard this message. Edited April 10, 2020 by Chalkarts
justicebeliever Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 Maybe I'm not getting something...But prompts pop up a window on screen that requires you to interact with it - press OK, cancel, something. When you get a reward, that's not a prompt, but flashes through the reward chat channel in the Chat box. Prompts can be disabled in the Options menu, and the reward chat can be disabled by right clicking the Chat tab, and removing the rewards channel. Let me know what, if anything, I'm not getting and I'll try to help more...

Chalkarts Posted April 10, 2020 Author Posted April 10, 2020 Prompts was a bad choice of words, but the only thing i could think of at the time, lol. When you're in battle and you kill a Mob that drops something, there is a message that flashes bright across the screen. "Recipe Found!" or "Invention Salvage Found!" I'd like to be able to turn those messages off if possible. For me they're unnecessary screen clutter.
justicebeliever Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 That's the reward channel in chat. Right click the chat tab that you see the message in. On the pop-up window, select "Reward" on the left side, and then click "Remove" (top middle button). Click OK. Repeat as needed for any tabs that have it.

It's not in a chat window; it's the message that flashes across the middle of your screen, unconnected to anything that appears in a chat tab.

To my knowledge there is no way to turn off the the messages that appear in the main window unless they are prompts with an interactive window.

Chalkarts Posted April 10, 2020 Author Posted April 10, 2020 Tis a sad. Oh well, maybe something to consider in a far future update?
Lines Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 +1 to this. +2 if we can have the notifcations appear in a smaller, less obnoxious location on the screen.

I wouldn't mind it so much if maybe it were smaller. It's ok the first time or two it pops up, but after the 30th time in as many minutes it starts to feel like the game is just yelling at me. Me: Cool, lets drop some Skulls! (Proceeds to jump into the pile) SALVAGE FOUND! Me: cool. SALVAGE FOUND! RECIPE FOUND! Me: ok INSPIRATION FOUND! SALVAGE FOUND! SALVAGE FOUND! Me: Dude, enough, ok, I know I'm FInding stuff, I'll sort it out later when I'm not getting curb stomped. RECIPE FOUND! SALVAGE FOUND! SALVAGE FOUND! RECIPE FOUND! Me: STOP YELLING AT ME!!!!! 1

And that was why he was asking if an option setting could be added; there are all kinds of notifications that throw themselves into the dead center of the screen; there's never been a way to turn them off, and when you get a bunch at once, the obscuration can interfere with your targeting.
