Mining announcements
« on: July 13, 2009, 08:15:07 pm »
Is there a way to stop the game from telling me about certain stones? It keeps hauling my screen down to the mines to show me how excited it is about some cinnabar or microcline. I'd like to only be told about ores or gems.

I think there may be utilities that let you disable those mining announcements, but there's no way to do it in the vanilla game.

Just think about all the cool colored buildings you'll be able to build when you strike that stuff, and the aggravation won't go away.

I understood nothing, contributed nothing, but still got to win, so good game everybody else.

Well in that case, can anyone tell me of a mod that does this? Or if anybody wants to create one, that'd be cool too.

Among the options, the most common seems to be Dtil.  Lookup the download link from the wiki.
