Message Windows

Post by LostKnight »

When we get a message we click on the "Envelope"

Now that "Window" with the message has a Red X or a Green Check that both do the same thing: they close the conversation.

Suggestion:

The Red X: closes the conversation
The Green Check: automatically opens the send a message sequence to the sender of the message.

Agreed that it makes sense. There are of course times a message was sent before I am in the game or messages I am not going to reply to, but plenty of times I do want to reply. Talk about cutting out a few steps and making some things simple.

So adding the "send message to this friend/clan mate/etc" would open with the green check? I decent suggestion, in my opinion.

Yes ... and if I may be so bold as to suggest:

Let's say you stay up a conversation with me. I want to respond to that message so I hit the Green Check Mark:
→ this is what I see: Show
↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ FT Android Version ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓
LK_20191027-144225.jpg

↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ FT Win/Linux Version ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓
LK_20191027-143859.jpg

↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ NOT THIS ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓

↑ ↑ That Friends List window ↑ ↑
↑ ↑ should disappear once ↑ ↑
↑ ↑ the friend is selected ↑ ↑

IMHO

Maybe even make the "bar" the typed text appears on semi-transparent.
OR code the Text Bar not to cover the "Mini Map"
But I'm not sure if that is controlled by the game or the device.

Would be a HUGE help just to have the "Friends List" disappear after the friend is selected.

I was just chatting with a friend and the response popped up. I forgot about that, but it was nice.

Thank you.

Yes, I understand about my tablets and 6.8 and why.
So tablets are designated out of house use or FT Offline.

Besides a 22" 1920x1080 screen is nice. Although holding the mouse button constantly to move is a GRRRR!!!!

Reason: I like my pets following not leading the way blocking doors portals or at times walking into a tree. The pets will walk around the tree and if it get in "my" way, I stop, the pet continues.

Hence: The D-Pap
