Please fix the message log. Allow us to filter the log for messages pertaining to specific countries or messages of specific type. The way the log is now, it's mostly useless. For example, I'm planning to go at war with my neighbor and I want to know if they had an event this year that reduced their army morale. You can choose to have the information displayed as a pop-up constantly, but it ends up being more spam than help most of the time.

Right now the log is unusable because information on it passes by too quickly at any speed other than 1, and it's very badly organized: scrolling through is a mess, messages contain information inconsistently (e.g. peace deals will sometimes not say what the peace terms were), event messages and decision messages are split when they shouldn't be (i.e. "Saxony had Event A happen to them" appears first, then there's 5-6 other messages not about Saxony and then the message "They went with Decision B" comes along without mentioning that it's talking about Saxony). Also, make messages on the log color-coded (or perhaps include a prefix category that is color-coded, e.g. (green)Diplomacy(/green) - France is now allied with Austria) and reduce/simplify their text to be more readable at higher game speeds. Also, clicking something on the log should display all the information you subsequently need as a pop-up.
