    can we seriously stop breaking flashes every other update
    flashes are an important aspect of PO that allow people to see when people are talking to them
    breaking flashes will also hinder channel staff from doing things like dqing in tournaments of slaying in mafia
    not breaking flashes will make po a better place
    thanks

    p.s. can we get all the colours working and not just around seven of them

    I agree with you whole heartedly. Another very important aspect of PO that seems to go away every other update is the Team Preview Window and Battle Window being ONE single window. As it is now they are two seperate windows wich is very annoying. cri

    This is a bug with QT afaik (the flashing and the preview window), nobody's intentionally breaking things. The colour thing is like, it can't be too bright or too "green" or it hurts peoples eyes I guess, but there's still a large assortment of colours you can use! :)))))))))

    Yeah its annoying not getting alerted by flashes, please fix this. also I have been randomly disconnecting when I open teambuilder. Its been happening since the new update. It's also been happening to other players as well. Was wondering if you guys could look into this problem as well.

    Fun Fact, that flashing bug has been a "bug" for more than one version. You can always download the source, download QT 4.8, configure the settings, and build your own client to use!

    The problem is, the flashing (referred to as "blink") gets fixed in QT 5.1 (or maybe 5.2), but the new battle window is very unstable past 5.0.2 or so, which is the framework we current use and have been using for quite some time. Probably since around v2.0.07 or something? I recall this being about the time it "broke."

    In addition, Moogle's client scripts (used by 99% of the staff) provide notification bubbles, similar to PMs, when they are flashed.


    As far as only being able to see like 7 colors:
    Try unchecking "Enable dog mode" in your options. More colors will be visible.
