Small RuneScape Suggestion

Jaden · **Posted:** July 12th, 2009, 5:00 pm

World 2 is a fairly stuffed place in areas such as the Grand Exchange, and sometimes the amount of players for the Choose Option menu is too large to even fit on the screen. This is mainly because there are four options (Walk here, Follow, Trade with, and Req Assist) shown for each name on the menu, which takes up quite a chunk of space on the menu. Why not reduce the number of options shown and instead only show the players' names. Then, when you right click for the Choose Option you can click a player's name and a sub-menu will appear slightly overlapping the player's name by a couple pixels on the right side and it will show the options their.

This is a very small suggestion but it will make it look less cluttered and you will be able to view more of the players' names so you can trade with a particular player. This change isn't necessary, but I think it would be somewhat more convenient in my opinion. Also, it could be a toggle option because in less packed areas it isn't as necessary.

What do you guys think?

That is a good idea and won't it reduce lag as well?

Pretty good idea, but only useful in high density areas, and annoying in places you would usually be.

thats the point he is trying to point just in packed worlds.

Yeah, like I said... maybe include a toggle-option of some sort?

Sounds interesting but isn't really necessary. It would be nice to have and all but isn't worth Jagex's time.

Wow, great suggestion. I wish I would have thought of that myself #-o

Sounds good, hope somebody has already suggested to Jagex that idea.

I'm thinking if the game could decipher between high density and low density areas, it would be fine. If it couldn't, I would go with the idea anyway. It's a very good idea and I wouldn't mind the annoyance.

It doesn't need a toggle or to distinguish high density areas. It would just automatically go to that display when there are more than x-amount of options in the menu.

Doesn't have to be just players, NPCs and other objects have lot's of options.

I don't think it would take long to do, it seems a small change. But what do I know XD.

I think that it's a good idea. Every time i click onto a player's name. a whole bunch of other options come up, effectively stuffing your monitor with other things. If it was more compact, you'd be able to comncentrate soley on the player you are interacting with, not other players.

Cheers, dafin0 :lol:

That's actually a better idea. I like

Ok. That makes much more sense. Much simpler and still gets the job done. Thanks for clarifying for me. =D>
