SLAP (Satisfying Libels And Praises) [3.10.*]

Description
Ever wanted to really insult your friends? But all you can do is use the vanilla insults? Here is a lightweight and performance-friendly mod that can solve that issue!

How?
Use the vanilla interface to insult your target, and a keyboard interface will open where you can type your Insults. Press enter or "Submit" to send the insult. That's it!

Awesome!
I know right? On top of that, you can also send a message when a trade deal is accepted (when it is declined doesn't work). To do that, you will first need to go to the settings menu by using DMM (press escape, select "Mod settings" and then this mod).

Wow there are a bunch of settings!
Indeed! You can toggle the mod on and off for soloplayer and multiplayer, allow or prevent sending customized messages to AIs, and enable or disable each diplomatic action.

Nice! What about other diplomatic actions?
Sadly, improve and harm relations don't work. Others might, but I would need to spend some time coding for them. If this mod creates enough interest, I might test the pacts and subjugations.

The keyboard looks great!
Thanks! It comes from DMM where it was codeveloped with mr_trousers with some design advice from TheMinxLynx.
By the way, you don't need to press the buttons, you can use your keyboard directly.

Whaaaat? That's witchcraft!
Almost! You really don't want to look at the code behind it.
You can use SHIFT+A for an A. You can activate caps lock with CTRL+C and spaces with CTRL+S (or the space bar, but it will pause and unpause, so do that only in multiplayer). The majority of the special chars need a click (except for + and - with use the Numpad + and -).

What about compatibility?
This mod alters the checksum with very few compatibility issues (none known at the moment, but some should definitely exist).
This mod overwrites the diplomatic actions action_insult and action_offer_trade_deal.
This mod is save game compatible. It can be installed during a game. Not sure about uninstalling.

I'm a modder and would like to use the keyboard feature! Am I allowed to do that?
Welcome! Using it is really straightforward, so don't be afraid! Go to the DMM page which powers the keyboard feature. You can use it by calling a scripted effect, and then wait for the user being done by using a custom on_action.

I'm a modder and would like to use the menu template feature! Am I allowed to do that?
Same stuff, it comes from DMM, so go to its page. It's not as straightforward though, but I'm planning on writing a website which would generate the template for you. Stay tuned!

I would be willing to take over this mod from you, if you wish. I have a few friends who are bored developers who could do it justice

when i press the dynamic mod menu button, this always pops up it's own window, which is really annoying, that should only happen when i click the SLAP DMM button, i think
