Re: show kin names on hearthfires
This is cool. It'd be awesome (though unlikely) to see raids with groups trying to recover their fallen.loftar wrote:EDIT: Successful. Added to skeletized corpses as well. Will be in effect after the next restart.

Re: show kin names on hearthfires
Could you please make it a bit less obtrusive?
I mean, some guys decorate the place with skeletons... and the hearthfire thing is also very annoying.
Don't float the names constantly, and put a small delay on before the text appears on mouseover. And maybe use a different colour so I can differentiate from normal char names. Thanks!

Re: microupdate: kin names on hearthfires and skeletons
With regards to skeletons, you could just delete them from your kin list. I doubt you've got much use for them on there when they're dead and all.
I do see your point with hearth fires, though, but at the same time it seems contrary to purpose to hide the information.

Re: microupdate: kin names on hearthfires and skeletons
I believe the requested purpose was to make the information visible, not ALL UP IN YO FACE screaming YO I AM [name's] HEARTHFIRE, BIATCH. The names hovering around my doorway (as soon as they get on they are moving those things whether they like it or not) are indeed quite distracting. 'Hiding' it until rollover seems appropriate in my opinion.

Re: microupdate: kin names on hearthfires and skeletons
Yep I totally agree and there is a reason now to not erase dead people from your kinlist, exactly to see which skelly belongs to whom. So pop up at hovering over only seems to be a good solution.

Re: microupdate: kin names on hearthfires and skeletons
oh dear, yes, it should only be visible when you roll over it

Nice! It would be extra sweet, however, if it also worked on hearthfires that belong to people who are offline.
