How to Close Output Log?
« on: March 16, 2015, 06:36:03 pm »
Hi! I'm new around here! I bought Outerra a couple days ago, and it is incredible!

However, just today I booted up Outerra and before me was this output log, or whatever it may be called. I tried to ignore it, but it did not take long to annoy me to death. However, I couldn't find anything in the controls panel saying how to close it. So, how do I remove it?



Seriously, this thing is killing the immersion so bad. I can't even see the interior of the plane I like to fly!

True, but I kind of like to take a look at what the popup is saying, in case its important, before I kill it.   :)

We will change it to just a single line appearing with the last error, possibly fading away after some time, with a shortcut key printed there to open the log.

 ... i wouldnt let just a single line. Sometimes its good to test several variables or errors at the same time ...

Agreed. I think that with just fading away after some time if the log window wasn't activated by the user, would be just fine.

I meant - a single line appearing at the bottom if the user didn't open the window himself, with the last error shown. If user presses P it will show the log window as it's now.
