The scripted playerlist have a Mass PM button that I don't think the external playerlist has.

So much easier/better to just highlight all the people you want to send a mass too, and let's you choose who you want to send it too!

You can do this with the scripted one, at least on v6.

Why is this even relevant to the topic if not everyone is using it?

[Rufus]

I haven't found a single theme that skins CORRECTLY on the in-game playerlist. They are always look glitchy and crappy, but it's not as though I use it anyway.

The in-game on is visually ugly and it takes up my precious graal screen. Why wouldn't I use the external one? o-o

[kia345]

Everyone doesn't play in fullscreen?

From a pure UI&D perspective the scripted one is inferior to the external one. Just saying.

External. Even with v6 the playerlist is more of a chore to manage than anything, such as not coming into focus with the Graal window, not remembering its positions, PM windows popping at the mouse...

It'd be cool if the internal playerlist could be docked IN the Graal window so that it doesn't obscure the gameplay, and yet doesn't hang outside the Graal window.

This topic is too old and wrinkly.

If UI&D means 'user interface & design', you couldn't be more wrong.

Agreed.

This would be great.

How am I wrong? The blue GUI makes the text harder to read (blue text on blue background is a huge no-no), the tabs are less differentiated, and from a performance perspective it is slightly less responsive due to the lowered FPS.

Sure you can choose different skins to solve the first problem but the other two are still there. The scripted playerlist's only redeeming quality is that it displays heads regardless of what server you're on.

On Linux I use the scripted playerlist but only because I have no choice and the external playerlist on Windows but I rarely play Graal on Windows.
