Alarm Tab

Recommended Posts

Now my suggestion is a new tab called Alarm. (or whatever more suitable name ya wanna call it, its unimportant really)


 


What does this new Alarm tab do?


In short it notifies you when "alarm" type events occur.


 


Currently when something occurs (like global warning msgs or settlement alarms raised), they get quickly put on a line in event (which may be completely missed if you arent paying too much attention or completely if event isnt open).


I'm suggesting these type of msgs get posted in the alarm tab.


 


In addition to that, there is 2 little checkboxes available for villages in the settings.


One for the display/hiding of "natural" non-tamed non-kingdom animals and one for alliance display.


When alliance display is turned on their settlement alarms will be posted for all alliance members in that tab. (If not, then they are only sent to villagers)


Some kingdoms got fancy workarounds to be alerted when something triggers guards (like irc bots, twitter warning systems, etc etc), but thats for out-of-game warnings. This is the ingame stuff.


 


Information Ministers/Head of the secret police/Bloodwhisperers would get the notifications about offices logging in/off


Earl Marshal/Defensive advisor/Chief of the cabal would get their notifications about the towers under attack.


 


Towers/Battlecamps being capped would also be displayed there instead of the death tab.


 


Etc.


 


TLDR:


Battle camp Of The Bull is being conquered.


Nahjo neutralizes Diamond battle camp.


Tosiek conquers battle camp Of The Bull.


Adolescent fat Strongpaddy raises the settlement alarm of Rome!


Bobdole is now a citizen of Rome!


Under the rule of Orlaz of Rome, Arretium has been convinced to join the roamin warlords. Citizens rejoice!


Defense Advisor Chrizs of Mol Rehan is now online.


<Enki>: PVP BAN IS CURRENTLY IN EFFECT - BLA BLA BLA


The next Hunt of the Ancients starts in 2 hours and 10 minutes.


The settlement of Devilz And Wildones Home has just been founded by Bible.


[that msg about a deed having less than one month upkeep left before disbanding upon logging in] (for alliance too if checked)


 


Stuff like that.


 


 


 


ps. the tab only appears if an alarm is actually triggered, just like the death tab.

I've long wanted a tab where the CM/GM messages end up, i.e. warnings, crucial bugs (so they don't spam them in event throughout the entire day...) etc. Thought we'd get that when they announced the new Support tab but nah. So I'll give you a definite +1 for your idea

Have all my +1s, this is one of those things I always felt was needed to clear up global events.


 


Also some more messages for the Alarm tab:


- Unique slayings


- Server restarts


- Valrei events

+1 for whatever the heck all those things are, plus warnings about alliance deeds hitting under 30, and/or any other deeds that we request to get alarms about, if the mayor said yes. (One of my deeds is not in my alliance.)

Would be both useful and a way to avoid those that don't pertain to you (like casting restricted spells on a priest you don't have).
