Here! I whipped up a little demonstration map showing what's possible. Yes, it uses the default game text entry, but until the edit box comes around (which I left a little space for in the bottom of the box :D), that's what we're gonna have to use.
The chat box:
Displays at most 3 lines of text per person
Displays the players name and color
Stays within the bounds of the larger box
Has little arrows to scroll up and down!
+ Will have an edit box on the bottom for text entry independent from the default game messaging system
Holy hell. I can freakin' walk inside it now!
Haha! Thanks so much dude!
But now... to make it fade slightly when you have a unit inside?
Oh one more question, when doing the placement apply/check, is there a way to ADD purple squares? With some of the doodads and things, there aren't purple squares where there is OBVIOUSLY building. Wait.. maybe that doesn't matter all that much....

You can copy and paste without having to have two windows open at the same time. Simply copy what you need, then open up the other map and paste it.

Here again! I made a slightly more complex version. This one allows you to assign players to one of two teams and keep the chat logs separated.

+ Impossible to do at the moment.

I think that would be quite impossible seeing as the "edit box" dialog item isn't functional yet. That's essentially what you'd be using.

I would like to note that this will be my entry. Disregard my first entry I suppose....

@Madlios Dude... That's epic. I think I may use that as my background :D

Hero attributes? I can't figure it out for the life of me.
