KT28 Updates Kudos!!

A massive thanks is deserved to KT28 for multiple QoL updates and of course specifically the updates to note length and languages!

These are truly awesome changes for RP.

Kudos!

OMG. I am such a fan especially on the latest one with the ability to read and write in all different languages. I can't imagine all the RP that will come from this. Brand new dev. You've already done so many amazing things! <3

You're absolutely great KT

Throwing in on this for sure. For so long I thought much of this was well beyond the scope of the engine or something, so in my eyes KT28 is doing the impossible!

Seeing more ways for PCs to interact in these subtle but meaningful ways is very exciting.

So we're very much on track.

Languages on notes, items and fixtures is FANTASTIC! Thank you! Great update!

RP only starts at 30 if you're a coward.

I was 'meh' on the change to notice board stuff being in languages..


But item descriptions? Fixtures?

This changes EVERYTHING.


Thank you!

I as a DM am actually VERY appreciative of this. I've ALREADY been able to put it to use as part of something I have ongoing.

I would love to point something specific out.

Not only, KT28, did you do something amazing and wonderful but analyzing the logs I saw this.

That, is an incredibly nuanced, beautiful, and creative solution to a complex issue with the way colors are displayed in the text editor without creating a color overflow in the text. I'm thrilled at this. The coding for this must have been tedious, and the level of detail to make sure this was done properly is not lost here.

Bravo.

There's an infernalist in Guldorand hanging up all sorts of letters in infernal. I have no idea what they say, this is the coolest thing. I love this system.

I am glad this feature is noticed and appreciated! The color tags around each word were necessary to make partially-fluent reading look right; getting rid of the ugly text-color-overflow that happens on all colored text was actually a happy side-effect of having a mix of legible and illegible words within the same document.

Putting on my dev hat for a second though, I do also empathize with potential frustration from anyone about how this makes logs difficult to read (not saying you, Drogo, are frustrated by it) - but for anyone else who sees this in their logs and is annoyed by it, there is a discussion in this thread about how to turn it off so color tags do not appear in your logs at all.
