Remove the 'X shot Y Weapon!' Message

Post by Butterrobber202 » 20 Jul 2016, 13:17

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Remove the 'John Doe fires SMG!' Message, due to it making it impossible to give/take orders in the heat of combat due the message being pushed REALLY far up into chat.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): Marines might actually listen more often. And, due to the fact we have Muzzle flashes, you can still tell who shot.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Just remove the message, and/or add another chat box for it (?)

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):Code 'n stuff
the alien drone (848) has been robusted with the emergency toolbox by Johnny 'Snowball' Redem!

The message serves a function, and it's not in the cards to remove it right now. Maybe in the future we can find some work around.
