What is your suggestion?:

Update "Game: Filtered" chat option to be similar to OSRS

 

Is this in OSRS?:

Yes

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

I am not sure

 

How would this benefit Alora?:

This is a very minor & niche suggestion, but it really rubs me the wrong way and makes the game feel clunky, especially when I'm spamming an action for 30 seconds then click into filtered tab to see the game message on why my action isn't registering.

I'm sure many Alora players prefer to play with the filtered on, so they can see what people in chat / cc / yell are saying

I didn't find much resources on what 07 is using, but I've attached some examples, and some situations where the "Game: Filtered" option on Alora should improve

 

OSRS Wiki does not have too much, just for reference though: https://oldschool.ru...terface#Filters

 

Listed these as a small example of items that shouldn't be filtered, I could go on all day, the main point is it should only filter unnecessary spam of repetitive game messages:

  • If I am being blocked on an action, such as attacking something without the proper runes or ammunition
  • If I click an action, such as "Check" on my blowpipe, it should tell me the charges & darts left

Here's an example of OSRS actions that show in filtered

Just to match the actions to the messages - I used a spell, checked my cape swaps left, examined the coins, and checked my tentacle whip charges

The only thing OSRS lets you configure is Boss kill-counts, which would be nice to configure:

Last but not least, more a personal irk of mine, the "Game" tab should not flash blue for every action

It should be the same color as the other tabs when 'tabbed into' all chat

The chatbox inteface or whatever you call it is a complete mess when you have filtered enabled.

It's very noticeable when you do an action that spams your chatbox(e.g making potions), and if you have it filtered it then it just wipes the entire chatbox. On 07 you can scroll up through hours and hundreds of messages.

 

Support your suggestion also.

I can recall this being a pain in the butt on multiple occasions. It would only make sense to have the filtered game tab repaired to function as originally intended.

Support! The chatbox is overdue for a revamp imo.
