Summary0007590: Make chat messages harder to miss
DescriptionIt seems like chat messages in multiplayer get lost or unnoticed very often. Part of this is due to the fact that they share the same space as all other messages, which can tend to have a lot of clutter. The other part is that they don't really stand out very much.

Some ideas for this could be : Making text bold/a seperate color. Adding an optional sound effect to sound messages. Having a seperate log for normal messages and chat messages.
TagsNo tags attached.

I agree. It's pretty much impossible on my server to use the chat due to how spammy the log is (information that IS useful), so we just use Steam Chat instead. There should be a separate log.
