New playerlist options

[konidias]

Okay Stefan, you said you wanted details about what I keep telling you. Here it is..

The playerlist options need a few improvements.. the main being the players need to be able to make and manage their own list groups.. The player types in the name of a group they want to make (such as Enemies) or something.. then clicks the Add button.. this will add the group Enemies to the playerlist. Then the player can add people into that group so that they can seperate those enemies from their friends and normal players. (so they can look in their list and say "oh say that person I don't like is on" or something)

Then in the list below the "add group" box, it lists all the groups and you can select one, and delete it using the delete button (should have a prompt come up saying "Are you sure you want to delete "Groupname"?")

You could also click and drag one of the names in the group list to anywhere in the list, thus putting that group before or after another in the playerlist. For example:

Buddies
Enemies
Cheaters

You could select Cheaters, drag it above Buddies and it would appear in your playerlist as

Cheaters
Buddies
Enemies

Then I added an option to sort the players by different things like account name, kills, deaths, etc. just so players can organize by who has the most online time or something (would just be a neat feature)

That's about all.. and maybe there could be a "Highlight users" option, where if the player has checked that box, the people that have that person in their buddy list show up green or something, and the people that have them on ignore show up red. But only as an option.

Attached below is the first layout for the new options:

Here is the second image, showing the things you can sort the players by.. if anyone wants to comment on this or add any of their own ideas, please reply

Yes that would be very helpful. My buddy list is very unorganized.

[AlkarenHyralt]

Not bad.

[Mrmicro]

I was thinking of something like that.. Glad some one made it

Of course, sort by accountname isn't much good without a view: [name/accountname] option. ^___^

That is a great idea, and I shall take your invitation... You should make it so you can chose which color the images signifining you have a PM are... Or which part of the image in the state you want to use for that perticular group of PMs... Also maybe add a couple more PM images to the states??

Konidias retains his place as most competant staff member there is, and hopefully he will stay that way

*cough link cough*

i said the same thing pretty much in my thread, but i of course agree that those are all good ideals! i'd still like to see the text editor though

[Falcor]

in-windo spell checker would be nice

Was Graal made in Delphi??? It'z kinda wierd because I worked with delphi like 2 years ago... I even made my own 2 player game =), But that's not the point. What language was Graal madde in C++ or Delphi?

[Falcor]

Delphi 4

[EThor]

Looking good

[Faheria_GP2]

probably would be faster in c++ though

I made that playerlist layout in Delphi 5
