Hi, I love this mod but I found the constant messages in chat and alert sounds to be quite annoying. I already altered my copy of the mod to add an option to disable all messages, which probably isn't a great idea but it works for me. I think other players already familiar with this mod might like a similar option, maybe specific toggles for arrival, "left", and lock/unlock messages? An option to just disable the sound OR text queues might also be helpful.

Some other alterations I made include adding a key bind for the keys shortcut, and adding an option to hide the "Your Vehicles" button with a dedicated key bind for it as well. I like keeping my HUD as clean as possible.

Thanks for considering!

Hi! Thanks for the feedback. :-)

Do you know that there is a per-player setting "Display messages as flying text" (turned off by default)? This doesn't clutter the chat window or play sounds. Flying text will be shown next to the player, so it should always be visible.

If you think that's still too much spam, I could add another setting and put a wrapper around the output in functions common.output and common.hint (file common.lua).

If you'd share the code, I could add this to the next version. This way, you could keep your current shortcuts and key bindings. The easiest way to contact me is via PM on the forum.

Wow, thanks for the quick reply. I saw the option, and I even understood what it did, but it completely slipped my mind that this solves my issue. As far as the other changes, they are incredibly hacky right now, but I have some free time today so I'll try to go through and clean it up to the code standards met in the rest of the mod. I'll PM you when that's ready! Thanks again.

If the effects of using flying text are not that obvious, I could add a sentence that flying text won't spam the chat console and won't beep to the setting description. Or do you think that would be too much?

OK, looking forward to it! :-)
