Avaton White	Posted - 2003.08.03 12:25:00 - [1] We really need a combat damage window similar to a chat window that we can scroll through and see what really happened with the ability to log the output. The way it is now I can barely tell what's going on since all of my weapons' damage output gets overlapped in the single "popup" style window. A lot of time I get shot and have no idea what kind of damage I'm taking etc. etc. This window also needs to include damage type like what kind of weapon was used against you and what kind of damage it hit you for and vice versa. ------------------------------------------------ "The best defense is a dead opponent." - Avaton White "The very notion of adding new features to broken code is self defeating to the point of being borderline insane." - Par'Nabuk ------------------------------------------------

Avaton White	Posted - 2003.08.03 17:04:00 - [3] Good point Indigo Seqi. I agree that the weapon and ammo shouldn't be displayed but at least display the damage type. EM, Thermal, Explosive. etc. ------------------------------------------------ "The best defense is a dead opponent." - Avaton White "The very notion of adding new features to broken code is self defeating to the point of being borderline insane." - Par'Nabuk ------------------------------------------------

Avaton White	Posted - 2003.08.03 17:24:00 - [5] I know about the neocomm thing but I need something I can use in battle on the fly without having to look for it. i.e. chat style pop up. See my original post. ------------------------------------------------ "The best defense is a dead opponent." - Avaton White "The very notion of adding new features to broken code is self defeating to the point of being borderline insane." - Par'Nabuk ------------------------------------------------

Avaton White	Posted - 2003.08.07 11:24:00 - [7] Does anyone else think this would be a good idea? ------------------------------------------------ "The best defense is a dead opponent." - Avaton White "The very notion of adding new features to broken code is self defeating to the point of being borderline insane." - Par'Nabuk ------------------------------------------------

Avaton White	Posted - 2003.08.08 01:59:00 - [9] Hey cool! Thanks for the tip about docking the log window in the chat window. That's pretty close to what I wanted. Now if it just reported the damage type and didn't go bonkers and erase it's entire contents sometimes it would be exactly what I need. ------------------------------------------------ "The best defense is a dead opponent." - Avaton White "The very notion of adding new features to broken code is self defeating to the point of being borderline insane." - Par'Nabuk ------------------------------------------------

Avaton White	Posted - 2003.08.09 14:04:00 - [11] Docking the log box in the chat window has been working great BUT, I'd love to be able to turn off the time stamps as they are just clutter and the ability to see the damage type is sorely needed. ------------------------------------------------ "The best defense is a dead opponent." - Avaton White "The very notion of adding new features to broken code is self defeating to the point of being borderline insane." - Par'Nabuk ------------------------------------------------

Avaton White	Posted - 2003.08.13 16:41:00 - [13] Ack my log window has gone insane. It either displayed one line only or nothing at all... Grrrr and I almost had what I needed. CCP can we just get the damage output put into a chat style window please? Get rid of those annoying timestamps too. They are worthless. ------------------------------------------------ "The best defense is a dead opponent." - Avaton White "The very notion of adding new features to broken code is self defeating to the point of being borderline insane." - Par'Nabuk ------------------------------------------------

Avaton White Amarr Doomheim	Posted - 2003.08.14 02:25:00 - [15] Ok you guys are missing my point. I know what kind of damage I'm doing. I need to know what kind of damage I'm taking. Currently all I have to go by is stuff like, "uhhh it's a red flash" or "it makes a strange pow noise". This is silly. ------------------------------------------------ "The best defense is a dead opponent." - Avaton White "The very notion of adding new features to broken code is self defeating to the point of being borderline insane." - Par'Nabuk ------------------------------------------------
