req: chat history widget

[kipale]

Yea read the subject^^. There's about 5 lines of console visible by default and in long games with lots of people there's about 5 lines of text coming every second. So it's not really hard to miss something if you wish to look at the map at times too.

Possible solutions are something like if I press key x then a window with 100 lines of chat history (and you can scroll for more) pops up (used in trackmania games for example). Or something like I could use page up / page down to scroll the console window as is (used in age of empires series for example.

yeah he ment what iceui (maybe also lolui, dunno) has for years (make the chat-window bigger with ctrl+f11 and scroll through chat history with mousewheel)

CA's chat console has a scroll bar, like in microsoft windows.

90 % of players don't use iceui and don't play ca. See where I'm going?
