Name Length on messages #874

Open Soulless-1 opened 2 years ago

Soulless-1 commented 2 years ago

Hello, is it possible that we can add some sphere ini setting for maximum message length before the next line? so we can make messages appear in a similar way to OSI

How does it show up in osi?

Soulless-1 commented 2 years ago

just like in that picture. that was not one I sent from OSI. I didnt have an item long enough to show that on OSI.

if we could have some kind of control in the message line for how many characters till it returns to the next line, that would be good.

I can confirm this, actually ClassicUO and some other clients use a specific behaviour for sending long names/messages to Sphere.

Soulless-1 commented 2 years ago

this has come from the standard client.exe btw, but glad this has been confirmed. it would help for several things.

I checked that to see if I can do anything about it, but seems like 0x1C packet has 30Byte limit for messages, we already use that limit directly as 30 so there is no possible way to increase it I guess.

It would be helpful if we had info about the packet making that long name show

Ill see what i can find. it would certainly help to keep keep the screen messages cleaner
