White text (growl) at the bottom of screen issue...

I love the placement of the text, so much! So much better than the black bubbles.  But, can we get it to fade out instead of shooting off to the right?  I keep thinking something is running by me, and its a little unnerving.  If I miss it, I can always catch what happened in my local chat ;)

(Not really a bug, so didnt think it belonged there.  If you feel it does, please move this)

  • from the "We are back" thread:

    Q: The new growl messages (explanation/notification text at the bottom of the screen) are bugging me!
    A: We are still working on the final design for this, but they will bug you a lot less soon anyway, since a large number of them will just stop showing up and go straight to your activity log (e.g., almost all animal interactions, since those already give you feedback via talk bubbles).

  • I wish they would hang around a bit longer (unless pushed off by something else).  They don't seem to have much value now unless you're specifically looking at them at the time you do something.

  • The first thing I did yesterday was harvest and replant herbs, and the growl messages were all obscured by the harvest/clear/etc. action bubbles. Didn't bother me, though, since I knew what I did (and it all showed up in local chat anyway).

  • I wish they would separte out the activity chat from the talking to other glitchen chat. Sometimes I just do not noticed someone spoke to me until they have lefT (it is all lost in the activity chat)t, or I have gone to another street. Makes me feel so rude.

  • It really would be nice if we had a Local Chat and a separate Activity Log

  • I agree it would be nice to have them separate! Especially in situations like when you want to save a copy of your chatting with friends when you're doing a notification-heavy activity like mining.

  • Yeah, whenever I see one I look around thinking someone walked by on the street.
