Message history in the app version (Android)

Post by André »

Hi, I'm new to the forums and new to the game, thus following beginner's question:
I'm playing on the app and I fail to find a way to view the messages history.
As far as I could find out it's a button in the PC version in the game interface that simply doesn't exist in the app.
Couldn't find a setting to turn in on or a command in the console that opens that window.
Am I missing something?

Thanks & happy new year ;)

I believe it's a sacrifice that the developer had to make for smaller screens.

Because from what I've seen online, the larger Android interface has the button you're looking for:

E.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/openttd/commen ... _any_good/
(please, focus on the GUI, not the wrong station design)

I guess my advice is to tap the bottom-middle panel repeatedly and go through all your messages that way...

I've just tried with my phone, and the news history button appears when the screen resolution in-game is changed to 1537x720 or higher. Try it yourself in the game options.
