Hi Everyone,

I have been working on messages to include in the message log for the mod I have mentioned and I have a couple of questions about how it works.

I've noticed that the messages in the RadioLog Expanded mod have a window for the date/time of the message that begins on one day and ends on the next. Is it required that the opening and closing dates be on different days, or was this just a choice of the modder?

Also, I've noticed that some of the longer messages look a little unwieldy on the screen because of their length. Is there a maximum number of characters (or a reasonable approximation) thereof that would give me a good idea of when to break messages up?

Thanx in advance.
