Make worldgen "history announcements" scrollable all the way back
« on: January 23, 2022, 05:45:43 am »
The current worldgen "announcements" window looks like this:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The appearance of it (like the fact that it's only showing things from the last few years, and doesn't have a visible scrollbar) seems to suggest that you can only see the last few announcements made, and new ones overwrite old ones.

It would be nice though if below the "An abridged chronicle (X events total):" line, the announcements themselves were in a "box" that would retain all announcements put into it, and it would have a scrollbar for moving through all of them (the section saying how many events there are in total, and all info above that, would not be part of the scrolling window, it should always be visible).

The window overall could also stand to be a bit "deeper" so more announcements can be read at once.
