onmap=yes?no?

[Transanser]

One thing buggers me constantly.
There is this one line in settings.txt
onmap=yes
Question is... well what is this? What it does? What are the difference between onmap=yes and onmap=no.
It has probaly no effect, but I just want to be sure.

I'd imagine it's related to those huge yellow text things that hover over provinces when, for example a rail road is completed.

The messages don't really bother me, but you know what does? The bloody bell ringing. DING DING WE FINISHED A RAIL ROAD. That's the worst thing about colonising Africa: next year you'll get spammed to death with those bells.

Big thanks.
But imagine you have all of Africa, and then you research new railroad technology. Free Autism.
But you can just rename misc_infrastructure in sound folder to misc_infractructure1 and that sound will be gone.

Can we just remove the whole thing altogether? I hate when I'm zoomed out and suddenly my nation goes yellow. Feels like I'm suffering a giant banana revolution.

onmap = no in the settings, and alerts on map should be gone according to EllisDee post.

I realise that now. I also realise that you can remove it in the message settings. I wasn't thinking straight.
