Hello Xavi,
After the recent update to Uniwar the in game match chat changed to mimic Uniwar global chat. While this change is very cool (Especially the emoticons) I have noticed a few bugs in verion (1.7.7) of uniwar for amazon.
(Note: In order to avoid confusion, I will refer to The community Global chat as "Global" and non-teamchat regular game match chat as "Regular Chat")

1. If a player opens the teamchat box in a FFA team match, closes the teamchat box to view the game map, then reopens the chat box the chat box will default to showing the "Regular Chat" instead of the teamchat for that game. While this is not a critical bug it is a slightly annoying one, especially when a player wishes to repeatedly refer to the game map and then type in teamchat and has to change over to teamchat each and every time.

2. The second issue I have found is not necessarily a bug, but more of a strong preference, is about how text in "Regular Chat" is displayed.
Before the latest uniwar update, it was possible to create new posts in chat by sending your old message, then starting a new message. This allowed the easy delineation of paragraphs and subjects throughout ingame chat.
After the latest update, the system changed to following the same basic outline as "Global" chat, forcing all of a person's words into one post. While this is an effective antispamming mechanism, it is extremely annoying in "Regular Chat". It would be preferable if you were to revert "Regular Chat" back to the old method of creating a new post with every new message instead of bunching all the messages into one big post.

In any case,
Thank you for your time,
Shadowntr

Thank you very much for reporting these annoyances that we will fix.
1) We will retain the last choice. This will be available in v1.7.10 (to be released Tuesday or Wednesday on Amazon)
2) We believe that merging the chat messages is a better mechanism by default. We understand that you want the ability to start a new paragraph. We will offer 2 options very soon allowing that features. One to have old behavior. One to start a new paragraph. Probably in the next weeks.

Is there any way to fix the time of new message in chat?
Now is just an hour before text.
While playing 8 players team game sometime you don't know if old message was posted 1 day later, 1 week or is just recent.
Changing hour of post on date or information when post was send (ie. 2 days ago) would be very hopefull.
