Summary0001377: Suggestions for client console notify lines, part 2
Description Why is C_FlushDisplay() called in g_level.cpp:1022 and g_level.cpp:1579 (ie. on level finished and level start)?
 This prevents players from seeing essential stuff without manually checking it in console, such as who exited the level, any last-second chat, the new level name...
 I very much like the notify buffer not being interrupted and was thinking that others might find keeping the buffer useful too.
 Note: other ports (ZDaemon and Odamex) don't flush the notify buffer on level finished.

 g_level.cpp:1022 was already in the source of ST 97c2, so it was added to Skulltag before I took care of the source, g_level.cpp:1579 is inherited from ZDoom. I don't know the motivation of either.


Quote from "Qent"

Make it optional with con_flushonlevelchange? I would like to keep the display uninterrupted (mostly for not missing chat messages online), but I could totally see someone wanting to keep a more vanilla feel (e.g. does it carry pickup messages into the intermission in singleplayer?).

Is this changed to work in 2.0?
