Title: Monster Activity messages are a bit excessive
Post by: Ossan on February 14, 2016, 11:31:54 PM
Kind of annoying to scroll past all of this every turn, especially when I check BM on my phone during my break. Any way it could be shortened (aside from killing them :p).

The monsters continue to dig burrows and slaughter peasants as they turn the region into their own hunting grounds!
1 peasant was eaten, eviscerated, or otherwise killed by the monsters.

I agree. I think you should only get one message per region.

yes, this was on my "list", but my list is getting long so I held off.

I imaging this would take either 1) option to turn off completely or 2)a bit of a re-write, as they prolly spit out one by one, rather than being collectable into arrays

I kind of like it. It drives home the gravity of your situation. ;)

But seriously... Wow. You are so screwed.

Heheh. Yeah, that's a bit silly.

I can look into doing some combining of these in the next few days.

It does yes, and nah its going to be !FUN!

... that is if they attack. They mostly just shuffle back and forth between regions.

It's called parade marching. Demonstrating your military might. Like in old soviet films or North Korea now.

As long as it isn't the mindless, idiotic, mentally challenged shuffling the AI does in the Total War games (seriously, done with those games until CA actually hires people who can program an AI that works) I don't mind it, at least we know where they are going.

I'm working on this right now. Taking a little longer than I expected, but I'm in the testing phase, so unless I run into some nasty problems with what I've already written, it should be able to go live either today or in the next few days.

Sweet, I look forward to it! Though we kind of lost the battle, it was pretty epic though. Poor Ivory Vale :( I barely knew ye.

no it's not, it will solve the problem quite handily.

First draft of this pushed to testing just now.

Please see if everything seems to be in order for the coming dawn turn.

Unless a tonne of monsters spawned somewhere else (assuming it isn't fixed).
