Free-flow chat changes

[Michael]

Hello Michaels!

Thank you for your patience testing the free-flow chat. After the summer vacations of our developers have ended, we are back with a set of fixes and improvements for the next-generation Habbo chat!


The condition where chat bubbles pile up on the bottom of the chat area and do not arrange unless you move the room should now be fixed.

A new method of handling very short bubbles was introduced. Small bubbles will now integrate into the local conversation flow without passing other bubbles in the flow too easily. It's almost like having a piece of the old chat inside free flow!

All rooms now have a chat hearing range control. This feature is exceptionally useful when paired with free flow chat, allowing quick pan / access of different conversations all of the room!

The interval at which chat bubbles scroll upwards has received a fine-tuning. Fast scrolling is now really fast, Normal scrolling is equal to the old timeout, and slow scrolling is double of that, 12 seconds. (not 24 seconds like it was before) If you had updated your room settings before, you might need to change your values.

Plenty of performance improvements should also un-lag your experience to the extent your computer allows.

It's been bug fixed which is nice. He was in his room yday talking about it, think I mentioned about the chat overlapping and he now says that's fixed which is good to hear he is listening and taking action!

Everyone will at some point.

there's an option in the settings to turn it off. I think that'll stay there, hopefully.

Can we stop making pointless updates and update stuff that the community want?

If it ain't broken, don't fix it.
