Heya all, so yet another philosophy thread for you lot.
So i was thinking after some discussions with a small group of friends that like to be able to see the name of objects they mouseover. Now the general place they see that is obviously in the statusbar.
But i was thinking would using client screen and a text outputter (dmifontsplus) to output the name of moused over objects would be better.
Thoughts?
p.s. Also any thoughts on my banking thread also welcome as it also has no posts D:.

On screen objects are slow, interface would be better: child with grid appearing somewhere in corner or etc.

Hmm true true.
well i intend to have a child under my map that contains my chat and possible a small stats windows. so i could add in a lil label there to be updated on mouseover i guess as oppposed to screen objects. Even though screen objects are slow i want to use client screen for outputting a trade screen and a bank screen as opposed to using the interface despite it being faster and cleaner. mainly because i want to avoid popups in my game entirely. |

I like the idea midget, however ripiz would kinda be right.
