Log window covers the Cogmind
« on: May 25, 2015, 03:42:44 PM »

It is probably not a bug per se, but there is no better place to put it.

When LOG window is opened all the way it is still possible to keep it open as Cogmind is running. The problem is  that it is still centered over old window and is covered by the tall log window.

I think it should recalculate new "center" to be between right edge of the LOG window and left edge of the hud window when log window is expanded.

Not sure I want to run with log window extended, but sometimes it may be useful, so may as well reposition new center so you can see what is going on on the left

Yeah, the purpose of the log expansion is just for parsing the last many turns, not to continue playing. It's true you can theoretically do it because input is still accepted, but with half your map view covered that's pretty dangerous.

I'd rather leave it as is to discourage that.
