    Hello!

    Stopping in again to make another follow-up about the error message display.

    The main reason that this error message is displayed in the center of your screen is due to the fact that this message has different lengths for each of our supported languages with German being the longest at three lines of text.

    As I mentioned the other day, this is still being looked into and we’re not at the point where we can announce an implementation date yet, but we’re also looking into making it so you can change the position of the text. However, in the case that we do implement a feature such as this, we plan on limiting it to top or bottom positioning and display size changes.

    Now I'm just curious what the heck the German message actually says, to be three lines long... (I'm just over here thinking of three different ways to say "Cannot use now" in German, and none of them would take more than one line.) Interesting!

    "Kann jetzt nicht verwenden" shouldn't take 3 lines, lol.

    Does this include the "The boss room will seal off in 15 seconds!" or "The Catoblepas eye glows an eerie yellow" messages? Because I really hate where that little black box shows up, and I want to move it.

    A20: While the feature can be implemented, it’s currently masked. It’s currently masked because we would like to prevent players from harassing each other just because they know they would never party together in the future. We will continue to monitor the situation carefully as we move forward.
