Message filter for F and Adv mode
« on: March 04, 2008, 09:28:00 pm »

Well it's mostly subject. I suggest a tune-able filter for messages, in both modes. This would kill all battle "antman-scrathes-your-pinkie-finger" spams and provide means to better manage the fortress mail. I also noticed that some messages stop appearing with time, like Brewers cancelling jobs in Stills without any messages, later on in the game(@~40 dwarves), etc. and the filter would provide means to track messages that are actually important to the player. I mean If I do "all job cancellation" and "dwarves stay indoors", I'm probably under siege and know what I'm doing, and don't really want to see all these "SomeDwarf cancels Drink/Eat/Sleep/Pee: dangerous terrain" x 500.
