1. Improved 'ALT' selection of NPCs in outpost. When you hold down 'ALT' and pan around town, you see only the NPC names on your screen, but when you try to click on one (like Merchant), then all the nearby player names pop up and bump the NPC name away making it very hard to click on him. This may even be a bug as the 'CTRL' button already has the function of making only player names appear; so why would they appear at all when 'ALT' is pressed? |
Now for the solution. Since most NPCs can't move, keep them at the bottom of the list! Because 99% of the time, I am trying to select the NPC, not some other player in the list. Right? I can only guess that when the developers tested the game, there was no one else in the outpost and therefore this was not an issue.
If anyone thinks there should be a better explanation of the problem, feel free to comment. If you feel this is a problem you want fixed, say so. If you feel this is a problem you DON'T think matters, say so. This problem has been ignored for too long and I'm reminded of it every day I play.
Thanks for taking time away from gaming to read my post.
