I'm sorry if this post exist.
What u think about a scrollbar in game Multplayer ? for me long time i want it because it is really boring in 8 or 10 players map when all ppl are talking we can't follow a conversation coz the window of text is too small...Then when u discuss with 1 dude and other are talking together u must say "can u repeat pls" or Something and in russian game sure it is impossible to follow :lol2: ... Or i do not know the button to move the conversation and i'm really sorry for the post! if not :
Then my idea to improve this interface is to add a vertical scrollbar.
Improving the chat history display is a good idea.

There's some work on revamping the UI elements to use a more flexible framework (imgui) which would probably better enable things like a scrollbar. Once we get 3.3.0 released, we can re-examine that work and see how easy it is to implement.

Is it going to be a left and right or an up and down scroll bar?

No, they're too old-fashioned. It will be a diagonal scroll bar.

also an interesting library as an option.

We can also use raylib from the same author.
