Revert the AI PDA change - So much spam - alogan19 - 12-31-2020

I love knowing about every single cargo order

Every med/death/injury alert

And every single PDA group alert spamming an already overly spammed AI player.

Hey - Cargo ordered another 20000 METAL SHEETS. How fun to scroll through chat.

"AI Send me Port-A-SCI"

Time to turn on messaging again....

**ALERT ALERT ALERT ALERT ALERT**

...Turn messaging off, they can suffer and die.

Or! How about an option to block certain senders? Like if you don't want to hear Cargo ordering another million boxes of carrots, just go like *blocked*.

Isn't there an option to turn that off though?

At least delete the program giving the messages?

Messenger, is separate from the file system, and cannot be deleted. Ideally, pdas would get a rework, as they are out of date and dont have QQL features, such as muting. or TGUI.

There's a PR set up to split the messages and not spam the AI, which I'd much prefer over just reverting the change personally.
