Chat UI ideas

#1 Post by lukep »

I have a few ideas for changes to the chat UI.

"Whisper to," right click option, which opens the [space] window with the player already selected, and making it unnecessary to find the player's name in a list most of the time.

Mouseover functionality in the chat log. It would be handy to not be restricted to the scrolling chat at the bottom of the screen for character info.

Any other ideas out there?

Right-click to view the current character of a player. (Could link to browser)

The chat typing window should show the log of the chat window you're typing into, with buttons to change between the different channels. It's a huge pain to flip between the log and the chat currently when trying to hold a conversation.
