Alerts

Description

Alerts are notifications that can be generated by any effect. For a effect, assign an alert in the alert field. This will display an icon with text. Optionally can have tooltip, create a map ping at the point of the effect, and play a sound. Alerts appear on the left side of the screen by default.
