BaconSarnie Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Its the multiplayer chat icon, getting rid of it means you will not see any chat messages when on a server with others. And lo, Reverend Vegas did say "Take forth unto the infidel the mighty GAU 8 and expend its holy 30MM so that freedom will be brung upon them who knoweth not the joys of BBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTT" "Amen"
Northstar98 Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Its the multiplayer chat icon, getting rid of it means you will not see any chat messages when on a server with others.

Goldham Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 It is the multiplayer chat. it can be opened using TAB by default.
Gladman Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Is there something in the options to disable it? If not, it sure would be a nice update item. 1 i9 9900K @ 5.1Ghz - ASUS Maximus Hero XI - 32GB 4266 DDR4 RAM - ASUS RTX 2080Ti - 1 TB NVME - NZXT Kraken 62 Watercooling System - Thrustmaster Warthog Hotas (Virpil Base) - MFG Crosswind Pedals - Pimax 5K+ VFA-25 Fist Of The Fleet [sigpic]http://forums.eagle.ru/signaturepics/sigpic99190_2.gif[/sigpic] Virtual Carrier Strike Group 1 | Discord
Apocalypse31 Posted April 5, 2016 Posted April 5, 2016 This is not just the chat bar, but also the message bar. If the mission editor enables it, you will see kills and information like when friendly units take off from airfields, or when friendly players spawn into a vehicle. You can hide it / view it by pressing TAB. I like to keep mine open because it provides more situational awareness. TankSim Discord
