What do you think?

[robotbob]

As a player, I love this idea. It would help you see the large damage hits in a fight

Can you indent your code with tabs? There's a line in the patch that's indented with spaces.

Not again

I still don't get the hang of indentation I guess, in my IDE it looks well indented.

To be honest, I prefer the space indentation rather than the tab indentation. With tabs, you can't for example separate the parameters of a function into several lines or it will be always broken for some people who don't work with the same tab size as you...

restored health points are almost invisible (+100 restore)

... and then what happened?

[Alberich]

When you restore the floating messages of the health points you restored have a very small font size.

Health gain is stored as negative damage? Oh LOL, didn't think of that

patch is working fine...but i was wondering if the screen is a bit cluttered by numbers. I mean, while fighitng i have:

 

- def and att xp floating

- damage raining on my head

- damage on the mob (lot more)

- mana from pots

- restored health

- magic xp

- oh, and healthbar (actually numbers there too)

 

 

Maybe we could remove floating xp and let it "slide" next the statsbar...
