QOL: change Vending Machine/Critter chat message colours

[Weavel]

It's just sorta a pain when someone else is trying to talk while your chatbox fills with more black text about cigarettes and water bottles


for some reason I can't edit the colour of my text, so here's a screenshot of it:

I agree 100%, this would be a big QOL change. I would also like it if the AI/Borgs had different text colour and/or font as well.

[Maegor]

Yeah, It is so annoying to talk to someone next to a vending machine

[Sov]

Would very much like this to help increase chat readability

I love your color choice. Blends into the background, making it literal background noise

[Nnystyxx]

Yes god please

Have it start out as normal black text, but every time you hear a vending machine it becomes more and more gray until it's in your "subconscious". Then put some subliminal messages in the style of They Live you can only hear at max subconscious.

and then the next thing you know you're part of a Vending Machine cult, constantly forcing others to eat Discount Danns at great, cheap prices.

Bumping this because it's still frustrating and dumb looking and very very important ofc

[warcrimes]

oh yeah! this VeryGoodThread® is back.
Please do this.

[Wraithcraft]

i agree +1

[Vitatroll]

Oh I never said I liked this.

I liked this.

In fact I generally love anything that adds readability.

[Technature]

Please yes please.

[Flourish]

Agreed with everyone; good idea!

I did the color change for vending machines, but I didn't change the font size, or do the same for critters. If you feel like something else is still necessary, please let me know. I'll keep this thread open for a bit, before moving it to Good Ideas.

Could this also apply to bots like securitrons or Buttbots?
