Better chat [UI]

[nullptr]

Currently working on refactoring code and shadow mode: after some time window goes into shadow mode like chat does. Also options window coming.

Can you make the chat unclickable unless Enter was hit?

[Jip]

That is a nice feature - chat is unclickable unless some message is visible (or you hit enter to chat yourself).

Nice job! Keep up the great work mate!

Version 6 released.

• Shadow mode added: window will fade after some time

[Zartan]

How do you get this to work? I have the mod installed and active. But nothing new is on my screen?

@scout_more_often bind a key to call a window in F1

[Zartan]

@ctrl-k Thanks!

Version 9 released.

• bug fixes + preparing for integration of options window

[Zartan]

Any chance of a video showing how to best use this?

[nullptr]

@scout_more_often usually i use it for warning teammates about exps, snipes, nukes and etc. For requesting energy or mass, ofc there are some special cases.

Version 10 coming:

• Rework of shadow mode due to some logical issues with it: you will be able to switch between modes, shadow mode is same as before but whole window is unclickable and calling window with keybind for it no longer returns to default, only changes focus on it.
• Removing redundant functionality of calling phrases (second checkbox)

Great, flexible mod!

Those plus symbols should get actual identifiable icons though!

Hi, this mod is fantastic!

1. Russian text turns into numbers after re-entering the game. Is there a way to fix this? (Screenshot attached)
2. Commands like /69 don't work. They just send symbols to the chat, and characters in the group don't send any responses! I'd just like to make a list of top commands so they're always at hand.
3. Please tell me in which file the text templates are saved?
4. For those who need it, I've uploaded a Russian translation. Open the tooltips file in the FAF\mods\better chat\hook\lua\ui\help folder and replace the text.

Привет, модификация просто огонь!

1. Русский текст после перезахода в игру превращаяется в цифры, можно ли это как-то исправить? (скриншот приложил)
2. Команды типо /69 не работают. В чат отправляются просто символы, а персонажи из компании реплики не отправляют! Просто хотелось бы сделать топ команд, что бы они всегда были под рукой.
3. Подскажи пожалуйста в каком файле сохраняются текстовые шаблоны?
4. Кому нужно, залил руссификатор, открываем файл tooltips в папке FAF\mods\better chat\hook\lua\ui\help и заменяем текст.
