Message buffer UI setting is per-character rather than global

I can use Ctrl+nm to switch to the classic HUD and it's great; however, this setting is only saved so long as I'm loading the same character I set it with. I couldn't find any value in the config file that seemed to control it, either. So, I'm setting it every time I make a new character. It'd be great if it was a permanent setting for all characters until you change it again.

Yeah, this has been bothering me for a while. I remember looking through the configs as well and not finding a way to set it permanently.

Yep, this is a problem. The option also should be made more visible in the in-game menus (is it even present there at all?)

Also, an user has said in the Steam forum that this also affects the more prompt settings (Ctrl+k).

I agree, changes should be global and saved in the configuration file. Both for the More prompt and for HUD and other graphical settings.

On a related note - I love the new HUD appearance, but it would be great to have a version with larger text (any way to do this?). I personally prefer to play the classic way with the HUD at the bottom of the screen and messages at the top. However the new HUD looks gorgeous, so is there any way to implement a full graphical version of this?

Yep I also didn't find anything in the configuring files for it. Hope there would be an option to put it on the old style permanently somehow.

Just to say, three seperate people asking about this same functionality within the last 22 hours on THIS Steam thread, too. http://steamcommunity.com/app/333300...1136921778376/
