Has anyone else ever stopped recieving inactivity warnings in a game and know how to correct it? I recieve them in all games but 1, and I have comapred CN settings to no avail.

yeh, it was actually all messages I stopped receiving, happens very occasionally, and I've NFI what the trigger is. Toggling "Silence all messages" doesn't help, but logging out (right out, not just to the T/H/S/X menu) and back in does.
Or, a possible really simple answer- does the game actually boot you for inactivity? If not, its probably just that the game has a really long inactivity period.
Cheers,
Dr. Bad

Yes it does boot me, I will come back to the game and as soon as I hit a key it disconnects me.
This game use to give me inactivity warnings... then something changed and they stopped.

Nope, been happening for 3 days now. I have logged out numerous times, shutdown my helpers, restarted my PC. And even connected with standard windows telnet and it still happens.

Private hails setting shouldn't matter. Only "Silence all messages" should turn off inactivity warnings.

Like I said, I have compared CN settings to games that it does work in, and here they are:
(1) ANSI graphics - On
(2) Animation display - Off
(3) Page on messages - Off
(4) Sub-space radio channel - 0
(5) Federation comm-link - On
(6) Receive private hails - Yes
(7) Silence ALL messages - No
(8) Change Password
(9) Abort display on keys - SPACE
(A) Message Display Mode - Compact
(B) Screen Pauses - No
(C) Online Auto Flee - Off

Yea your right .. I had this problem on alienbase once however and turning hails on seemed to have fixed the problem .. so I was going by that Maybee he should cycle the silence msg's off then back on to see if that fixes the problem ..

If messages are silenced, it evetntually logs you off for inactivity. He says he is getting disconnected, but his telnet client doesn't realize it until he presses a key.
