Chat Issue

Post by Fanta Arcadia »

When I click on the bubble beside a player's name to try and open a private chat, the bubble isn't responding.

I figured this out! The chat window opens up off the screen, I had to change my zoom to 20% to find mine! :oops:

I hope that once you find it and reposition it, it will remember it’s location so you don’t have to change your view percent again. Let us know.

There are a couple things about the chat that I have issues with. One is having someone try to PM me but it doesn't show up in chat but does in the other Sim tabs I have open. Also, the chat bubble that is on each page has a random number in it. Shouldn't it be how many people are in chat? Because I have no idea what that number means if not. lol

The number in the chat bubble is the number of people who are currently surfing the SIM site and have "Access the SIM Chatroom from all pages" turned on. When you click on the bubble, you will see the list of people who you could PM.

I'm not familiar with what you said about PMs not showing up. When I was testing, PMs showed up for me. But I haven't tried for a while. Do other people have issues with PMs not showing up?

Still having the same issue :/ I even closed a chat I had with someone last night before going to bed, I reopened it this morning, and had to zoom out to find it.

Having the chat PMs on every tab of the Sim you have open is super annoying. Esp when you are trying to work/enter horses.

You can turn them off in your game settings :) <3

(PS it would be super awesome if the default was to off so the joining/leaving chat bloops were for when people actually join/leave :P)

I understand that but if I'm in chat and talking to someone via PM and I also want to do Sim work in another tab I can't turn it off. Also I don't get a chat pop up on the actual chat page. They come up in the other Sim chat tabs I have open.. ALL of them just not the actual dang chat page.

Just an update that on a laptop browser (not tablet or phone) last night I opened the chat room for the racecalls and I had a PM window randomly go way over to the side almost out of view and I, too, had to open and resize everything. I hadn't had this problem before.
