While I was modifying my own custom settings, I came across the option for the steam chat filter in user_default.scr. I noticed that it had the "button" type, which to my knowledge hasn't been in the game before. At first glance, it's a button that shows the chat filter dialog. However I wanted to see if I can customize it, so I'm in the process of trying to figure this setting type. Here's what I found so far:
- If the cvar is set to chat_filter_settings, and default to any value that isn't open_chat_filter_settings, the button never shows.
- (Update 10/14/2020 9:52AM) If the default value is open_chat_filter_settings, it will open regardless of the cvar value.
- If the cvar is not set to chat_filter_settings however, the button shows, but doesn't (seem to?) do anything.
