Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) Please can you show the event message in a different colour when we get an affinity due to performing a routine task. It's often days after the event that I find out I have got an affinity - when I notice a new asterisk in Niarja.com. Then I have to trawl through log files to find out when it happened. As it stands, if we miss the message, we're potentially missing out on days of hard earned bragging rights! Edited November 24, 2021 by Muse 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 24, 2021 +1 Would be nice to have a sound ping on this one too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 24, 2021 Yeah, I think I've only seen the message/noticed at the time maybe 20% of the time, so I always end up stumbling across them days or even weeks later when checking the skills pop up for other things. During the skillgain event I was running 'affinity' find-searches on my event logs every few days because I had genuinely no idea if I'd managed to gain one or not.

Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) manually you can make a batfile.. to check with this: (windows, assuming you use that, even easier with "grep" on *nix, findstr is savage tool) for 2nd/+ affinity type X:\Games\Wurm\players\Finn\logs\_Event.2022* | findstr /i stronger | findstr /i affinity for first affinity: type X:\Games\Wurm\players\Finn\logs\_Event.2022* | findstr /i developed you can also make a batfile/shell file to do this.. and dump it in new file every time.. then read it with autoexec and say it in your log when you start the game(one day I'll do it for global casts.. but I'm lazy and don't care that much for now) get ideas for that from https://www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/Chat_commands and autoexec.txt in wurm folder if you think that's cool to use --edit grep grep -i "developed\|affinity for.*has grown stronger" _Event.202* normally I use insp.php bat "script" to lookup a word or string from current month's event log if I am bored or want to check for event like dropped item, etc(client crashes, client restarts, etc made me lose ingame timers and last meditation times.. when I cared to grind some of that, so.. the need for insp check was born.. but it helped me track fun or useful stuff like current month or day, week.. inspirations, affinities gained within the same month, etc) Edited May 16, 2022 by Finnn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2022 I'd like for server messages, GM/CM messages and other important alerts to end up in a separate tab. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 17, 2022 17 hours ago, Sheffie said: Should be more prominent than any message involving BEES it really shouldn't *remember no man's sky and their achievement mid screen flashy banner popping up nonstop* enough of the useless mid-screen messages, if you can't see a color in your event log or a rainbow on screen while you're alt-tabbed.. you definitely wont be seeing that mid-screen message what you want is a log for important events to track new affinities*.. it's something so rare that maybe doesn't worth this effort... it's important progression, but it's so rare.. you can get 3 in a day, and also ... 0 for several months * something like deed event lot and server history.. for sacrificing valrei items, adding upkeep, +/- villagers; also other log with events, +/- new deeds and disbanding, rifts, etc.. you get the idea... add an icon.. utilize the knowledge ui.. add icon there.. when there's new important event.. make it flash or glow in IMPORTANT* color, when there's new information to it that isn't seen but it's not amazing.. put another color or just border around the iron.. to show there's update.. but it's not necessarily amazing (I still hate all chat tabs flashing btw..)
