These fixes are now in the fafdevelop version in the client.
Some feedback before it goes in the official version would be great.

Something like this with the arrow either blinking or moving up and down a few mm.

Ok and where would this arrow be?
Some doodle arrow on a screenshot would tell me more
(or even a very nice arrow that i could actually use in the ui :p)

Okay i just looked at the code and it looks like i could easily remove a line of code, so it doesn't jump down.
I don't know the full implications of this though. (could be you would have to manualy scroll down for each message)

But in the obvious situation where you scrolled up a bit and then you forget to scroll down, you could miss all the following incoming messages.
So suggest a nice way how to signal a player that there is a new message he hasn't read yet.

And if its good and i am able to do it then i'll try to make your suggestion happen.

a sound like the message sound from faf but another sound

Observers button abuse

2017-02-22T19:22:20+02:00

I think clicking on the "observer" button when you are observer should not display any message in the chat box :

as you can see it can be abused to prevent chatting.
