Brevity Mode

(1/3) > >>

Thomas:
A toggle-able ini option for DoomRL veterans. Shortens most combat messages so only very large fights will require you to press space even once, improving the flow of the game.

The most important change would be "The missile hits the BEING_NAME" being shortened to "Hit!", or "Ouch!" if the thing being hit is you.

Also, there should be a button for repeating the level feelings, unless brevity mode shortens unimportant messages to the point where it doesn't take a lot of scrolling to find them in your Previous Messages screen.

thelaptop:
I second.  This is like "terse mode" in the old Rogue.

TFoN:
Hm. Thirded.

Kornel Kisielewicz:
Track it. I like it ;)

ParaSait:
Yeah me too.
Y'know, old roguelikes needed messages, since a lot was left to your imagination... but since DoomRL has so much visual effects, messages have become almost obsolete. :P
