Re: village chat
I wish this was an option, instead of being forced to join it.
Besides that, very nice.

Yes, I'd like it to be like that, I just couldn't figure out any good UI for it. :)Seizure wrote:I wish this was an option, instead of being forced to join it.

Re: village chat
How about just allowing it to be closed for now? It wouldn't be an ideal solution, bit it would work nicely for now.loftar wrote:Yes, I'd like it to be like that, I just couldn't figure out any good UI for it.Seizure wrote:I wish this was an option, instead of being forced to join it.

Re: village chat
Make a row of small buttons (think buttons for showing claims) just above the chat area. Clicking them toggles village chat, area chat and whatever other chats you add. I keep trying to close area chat because I hate seeing messages from hours ago, and I kinda miss the background. Maybe have the buttons blink if there's new messages in those chats since it was last closed (messages from before the closing get purged).

By "good UI" I meant UI that doesn't take any effort to implement. ;)Potjeh wrote:Make a row of small buttons (think buttons for showing claims) just above the chat area. Clicking them toggles village chat, area chat and whatever other chats you add.

Re: village chat
By that logic the best UI would be none at all. Somehow that fails more general logic.

no righteous man raises his hand against the innocent,
a man need only strike another to make him evil."
