Communication bubbles in ADOM

Hi everyone!

I hope this series of announcements doesn't feel like spamming but I am very proud of the progress that we right now make and as long as every day brings an (IMHO) major new enhancements I'd like to keep you all informed (as a compensation for too much silence in the past).

One complaint with ADOM currently (and rightfully) is that talking to monsters and NPCs is not much fun as you easily can miss the texts uttered by them.

Thus I proudly present "communication bubbles" that were implemented today to display utterances by monsters and NPCs in a beautiful way. Being an ASCII artist I for now only can show the ASCII version but here we go:

Let me know what you think - I'm really looking forward to the next release and now hope that my compatriots can catch up fast enough with the graphical repesentations for the ASCII visualizations.

Stay tuned!
