Seconded for exactly the same reason.
The undo button from damagelog is too good not to have.

re: cs96and/FoundryVTT-damage-log#19, if we can't get an option to toggle, could we at least get the messages tagged in such a way that modules could mute them?

I would like to endorse this request.

Count me in for the suppress damage messages support crew.

My groups would definitely benefit from less bloat. The only case where the post is useful, however, is when there's a shield applied and the string will properly inform the players that their shield is now broken or destroyed.

Putting my vote behind this as well. A pretty big pain and the chat log is cluttered enough as is.

Even giving it a unique CSS class so group ID so a module could just hide them would be nice.

For anyone interested, if you do a simple search and replace for the following in main bundle.js it will remove the messages

You would need to do it when there are updates... But... it is an option and works for now

await chat_message_1.ChatMessagePF2e.create({speaker:{alias:token.name,token:null!==(_e=token.id)&&void 0!==_e?_e:null},content:`<p>${statements}</p>`,type:CONST.CHAT_MESSAGE_TYPES.EMOTE,whisper:game.settings.get("pf2e","metagame.secretDamage")&&!(null===(_f=token.actor)||void 0===_f?void 0:_f.hasPlayerOwner)?chat_message_1.ChatMessagePF2e.getWhisperRecipients("GM").map((u=>u.id)):[]}),

Well, these are useful twice over now (record of IWR, and the undo button) so I'd close this issue if I was still owner of it. Damage log is mostly redudant for me now.
