Default Usability suggestions

Suggestions:

Do all battle animations respect the relative left/right map position of the combatants? (If my character is positioned further west on the map than my opponent, I should be leftmost during battle animation, and vice versa). It seemed like they were sometimes swapped in the demo, slightly confusing.

There really ought to be a way to toggle off the teletype-printing of text. It can be slow or distracting sometimes. A slider to adjust the slide-on speed of the various boxes and panels would be nice too. And (this is my personal and very subjective opinion) the slide-ons would look nicer if they were on an ease-in velocity curve rather than a linear slide.

Possible bugs:

In windowed mode, the window was actually much larger than the game itself, so I could see the offscreen panels appear then slide into place. It's pretty likely due to higher than normal windows dpi settings on my 1650x1080 laptop.

Pressing alt+enter during tutorials can inadvertently pop up the victory conditions window behind the tutorial text, with no handy way of turning it back off. (I was trying alt+enter just to see if it toggled fullscreen mode)
