Title: Group Chat Idea: Search Box
Post by: WaterDragon on February 07, 2011, 04:42:15 am
Whenever one of my friends creates a group, it takes me forever to find it. Scrolling through all those groups that have been made tends to hurt my eyes.

So, here's what I think would be a nice update for FH. To find the group we are looking for, there should be a search box. We type the name of the group we want to join, then once that group name is found, it will be highlighted. Also, I think it would be equally helpfull if there was an up and down arrow on the scroll box. That way, players won't be as shaky when scrolling through the group names.

Yessss this is exactly what was annoying me. I also think they should be in alphabetical order.

Another thing: Arrow buttons! We seriously need arrow buttons for scrolling, because just dragging the scroll bar is too fast the buttons would go one page or one name at a time.

I completely agree with both of you! o3o'
the same scroll problem is also in the chat box, which gets really annoying when I wanna see previous posts. xD
but back on topic, group search would be a nice feature c:

Teal Skeletor: Yeah, I think the groups should be in alphabetical order too. Thing is though, some of the groups don't start with a letter. Some start with a number or a symbol. So maybe the groups that start with letter will be alphabetized at the top, and the ones that don't will be at the bottom.

If you look at files in your folders on the computer if you have them set to alphabetical order, the numbers are always first. So it goes 0,1,5,7 etc, then it goes b,d,h,l and so on.

Man, I had this issue trying to get into a group, i spent like half an hour trying to find it then gave up and had to be invited after searching for the person who made the group.

I have noticed that newer-made groups are down at the bottom, so I didn't have trouble finding mine since it was recently-made when I was invited to it. :B But yes, a search box for that would be nice! ^^

For now, I figured out how to make it a little easier to find groups.

Click the actual box the slider is in instead of the slider, this make it where it doesn't skip any groups. You still ahve the problem of the names not being in order and such, but this should help the skipping problem. :)

You have a good point Moonlight. I still think a search box would come in very, very handy though, but I'll that in mind about clicking the slider box instead of the slider.

How come? I think that if you leave a group that you made, that group will disappear.

People in this thread should be happy now since it seems to be a search box in the new patch. xd

Yeah I just saw the search box! I'm so happy I posted this idea. I know others probably made a very similar post, but I'm so happy to help make the game a little bit better. =D
