It would be really nice to see the party members’ status without switching to the bugged party tab by replacing the chat. The tab that doesn’t exist upon relogging. It really is inconvenient when you can’t see your party members’ health or status, or even the chat log. In fact, there’s enough space at the bottom of the GUI for 3 entries of the same data as the roster’s. (mugshot, level, gender, HP, exp, status, item) You would just have to make the bars a bit shorter, but everything would fit otherwise. It should be simple to implement as well because most of the work is already done.
[spoilerMockups:3jyvyf00]Nevermind the detail, that"s not the point.
Agreed. I like to play PMU with more of a support role in mind. Using Light screen, safe guard, healing moves that work on everyone, things like that.
But I can’t really do that. If I want to heal and watch party members, I have to change over, and be unable to see the chat… Which, isn’t really something that is acceptable … OR, I can just leave it on the chat, and try my best to guess, on when I have to use a heal on party members… wasting PP in the long run.
I don’t see how this would be hard to add, I just want a way to see my party members at all times, without having to give up my ability to chat. Putting 3 party portraits at the bottom I think, would be doable…
What Kiyora said pretty much sums up how I feel about it, just hope if this is accepted by staff, crashes, and logging out doesn’t make the party interface completely vanish like the explorer kits tab. Would be an easily fix to just make the Party Interface visible at all times, and just have it’s information blank, just like when you don’t have a recruit in a slot at the top of client… Still has a slot, but it’s not showing information.
