[Suggestions] UI Improvement
  • Doozer August 2010

    - The My Kingdom" page should show which city is your main city somehow. Either always list it first or put a star next to it's name.

    - The "My Kingdom" page which already shows you a list of cities should have buttons to take you to a selected city. This would let people clean out mail that has links to the other cities and since mail memory usage seems to be one of the issues, I would think this would be a good thing.

    - With the above change to the "My Kingdom" page, the "City" button on the world map display should take you to the "My Kingdom" page so you can select what city you actually want to go to. That is if the player has more than one city of course.

    - The "My Kingdom" page and the City subpages do not have "Done" buttons, they force you to back all the way out through the "People" page. This is annoying and not user friendly at all.

    Good ideas. The most important is that they let you jump to cities through the My Kingdom page. Some other things are:

    ~Have a "delete all" for mail.
    ~Sort mail into categories, like "battle mail" and "player mail"
    ~Show only timer wheels for the city you are in, and don't show them on the map. When you have a lot of wheels active, they use up a lot of memory, so in general they should also be behind a tab.

    - A "Delete All" for mail should have a confirmation dialog in case it was ht by accident.

    - As for the timer wheels, a page that shows *all* current activity by city as a list would be nice.

    The main point I had for the timer wheels is that they should be hidden behind a tab. Then it could be sorted by city.

    A good point. I had so many things going on for a few hours that the few timer wheels that showed were useless anyway.

    Mmm I've suggested most of these to devs already. If they are planning on implementing(which I very much hope is so) then it is already on their list of stuff to do.
