This may interest you:
If you launch the game with -autoSkip option enabled, all pop-up windows will automaticaly close. It also automatically finishes each player turn, however - for AI testing purpose.

Thank you. But w/ this it is impossible to play: it keeps skipping my turn all the time.

What i suggest is not a testing mode, but for more comfortable playing by reducing needless attention, manual opperations. Windows could disappear slowly like dimming and thus infroming player w/o interupption.

Perhaps use bottom-right corner window to display this kind of things? H3 does not have non-modal dialogs in UI.

Yes! That's even better what i have suggested! Great, thank you, Ivan!
Thus the info can be put to the corner and the windows gone away.
