says, “What the shit?”

says, “Awoo.”

says, “no awoo, 200$ ”

says, “goddamn Monsters ”

says, “hmm”

says, “extremely, hilariously minor note to self that I have to trigger a scrollToBottom when I switch between narrative and character input modes because it fucks about with the vertical height of the posting bar”

says, “ah yeah it does have to be as tall as the icon. the icons being small enough to fit on a single line might not be readable enough tho…. hm”

says, “I think there’s a TINY bit of v-height I can squeeze out of it still but the avatars are already unconscionably small as it is, I really don’t want to make them any smaller >_>”

says, “yeah haha”

says, “i was gunna mention that the chat input box probably only needed to be one line long like the ooc one but it’s just lining up with the icon selector anyway so…? probably alright ”

says, “Oh good if you bump up the zoom a bunch nothing is breaking horrifically on my screen at least, that’s reassuring and I didn’t actually check until just now, lol”

says, “Chat input box being one line tall would give me hives and be Illegal, GM fiat lmao”

says, “full screening the window does give a bit of extra space at least, too, so I’ll have to remember to do that ”

says, “Oh fuck me the gnosis icons aren’t actually keyboard navigable, not that I think anyone but me will ever actually care about that in any universe but I do care”

huh i wonder why it moved me to the other room, maybe it defaults there? that’s weird

**

says, “also need to run a colour contrast checker on both light and dark modes of the whole Goddamned website”

says, “also doesn’t seem to remember i was in speech mode when it does that… ”

dicks dicks dicks

says, “uhhhh i have NO IDEA ”

dicks dicks

**

says, “yup it was a trailing newline motherfucking son of a bitch lol I thought I’d accounted for that.”

says, “i don’t remember doing anything in particular so it must be something i do with some frequency at the end of a line????????????”

says, “ah………………………………………………”

says, “???”

says, “did i run off, hit enter, and then remember i need to ctrl+enter…………………………….. ”

says, “yeah no idea what I did but i guess you do lol”

says, “should be an easy fix だぜ, I just need to trim whitespace off the end of content before I do the Deep Magic Of Being Really Picky About Typography to it.”

says, “FWIW nothing colorwise seems bad on my end and everything is perfectly legible. Other than like, glowing white, black and maybe void on the skill numbers”

says, “i am Not Happy with the gnosis number styling that’s all a holdout from a VERY early build I haven’t been arsed to go back into and figure out an actual good way to do. but it’s good enough for now ”

says, “fair”

says, “i can’t get my brain out of Meeting Web Content Accessibility Guidelines mode even if I wanted to, which is, I suppose, a good habit to be in given my literal day job”

says, “yeah lol”

says, “PDFs can eat my ass and hair, on that note.”

oh dawg look it week-rollover’d in the Archives for Elsewhere, hell yeah that worked correctly without me having to jack off a calendar

says, “This does look WAY better though imo the very powerful Discord, If Discord Was Made In 2001 And Was Competing With AIM energy it has makes me giggle too

”

Web 2.0 baybeee

says, “had some minor other thoughts too, tossed them in Actual Discord since i wanted a small screen shot instead of trying to figure out how to describe something with words lol”

says, “it occurs to me that if I lose the concept of a visually boxed-in post in the Scenes UX, which… isn’t really buying me a Goddamned thing anyways, I can probably wring some more v-height out of this.”

Every so often when the page scan/reloads itself, it’ll flip the text input back to action? Which is only a SLIGHT annoyance and not a Deal Breaker, but if you could find a way to maybe Speech default instead of Action that might be desirable

bark bark bark!!

says, “Ohhhh dangit heckie the music footer is actually slightly taller on the admin view in a way I didn’t notice until your screenshot, that’s why there’s that unused vheight”

Oh huh

feels like Action is probably the reasonable default buuuut then again mIRC makes you type in /me if you want to do an action so maybe Speech Is Default and Action You Have To Do Something For is reasonable. “Much to consider.”

says, “idk anyone else but I’m a lot more likely to rapidly input dialogue back to back off the cuff vs Doing Shit (which tends to be a little more deliberate and longer) ”

says, “but yeah not too important in either case, just thinking out loud as I notice stuff”

can i swap mid line

says, “i cannot change from action/speech if my focus it on the ooc box however which is… probably fine…? but both ctrl+space and ctrl+enter working on both is probably slightly more fine if it’s not more work ”

says, “Ooh, nice catch.”

damn i get a LOT of screen on the Tall Monitor (sadly i don’t have access to this while in the office tho)

says, “Ooh, I should put my side monitor in portrait mode and see how hueg it is like that, lol”

says, “wtf”

says, “That was a weird crash but it posted my post anyways…? sure, jan”

lol

wonders if putting qoutes around something automatically makes it not italic-d. “Only one way to find out!”

**

says, “six-ish lines on the small monitor, 8ish if i full screen on the small monitor…. much better than the 3 we started with lol”

says, “how itsy bitsy IS your small monitor, lol”

says, “but, Hell Yeah”

says, “Oh this is delightful”

says, “:D :D :D”

says, “I mean it’s a 17inch laptop monitor which all things considered is Big, but if I gotta have this program up twice the one with the Ritual Field def needs to be bigger lol ”

says, “(i think the resolution is actually 2560x1440 on this so it’s technically bigger than the other monitor, but it’s also set to 150% scale because i’m blind and also can barely discern the difference in 720p and 1080p so my ass definitely never invested in any Ultra HDD Display shit lol)”

says, “lmaoooo valid”

says, “oh you changed the shape of that slightly, neat”

says, “Ye”

says, “are there any other wacky bubbles beyond Arte Rolls being blue and Omega Dots purple”

says, “What do those words mean when they are at home?”

says, “OH I GET WHAT YOU’RE ASKING. ”

says, “i figured the colors would have cleared it up but i guess not!! uh the Not-Speech Bubble that wraps around text”

says, “(omega dot was perhaps not the BEST was to describe them but is the only way I know of At This Moment (Intentional)”

says, “ye”

says, “when you [INCOMPLETE] so hard you transcend the GM tag”

haha

says, “LMAO ”

says, “that not having any space to linebreak it destroyed the UI ”

lol

says, “im glad infinite repeated omega was how we Discovered This Flaw, peak commitment to the bit”

lmaooooooo

says, “Yay, that worked”

I’m sure that’s the correct word.

says, “Do I need to take a screenshot of the button that says “Narrative”? ”

says, “Ooooh now this is called Stillness”

lmao

says, “Is it time to play yet?”

says, “<3”

says, “oh no mr sideburns is writing in stylized text”

says, “oh what does the ooc text look like in the kompressed windows anyway”
