Better Diplomatic Notifications
About
Have you ever missed the leadup to a war because somebody started a diplomatic play against you and you didn’t notice? Well now you won’t. This mod edits the notifications for plays involving the player nation to appear at the top of the screen with a sound effect instead of quietly shoved into the bottom right corner of the UI.
Details
Specifically, the notifications for
-A play being started
-A side backing down
-Nations taking/abandoning a side
in plays you are involved in are set as "toasts" which appear across the top of the screen instead of "feeds" which only show up in the corner under the outliner. (Plays in your area where you haven’t gotten involved also seem to count for this, but I don’t think there’s much I can do about it.)
I considered doing the same for other nations breaking treaties with you, but I haven’t figured out a way to separate important ones like alliances from junk like improving relations. So in the interest of avoiding message spam I decided not to.
Compatability
This mod edits 00_notification_types.txt and may not work with anything that edits the same file. Otherwise it should be fine.
It seems to work just fine with existing saves, but this is a paradox game, so your mileage may vary.
Permissions/Credits
If you want to make improvements or just stick this into a pack with other mods, go nuts. I did this in like 20 minutes in notepad++, I do not care.
