[Suggestions] UI Improvements

from Demigod Forums

 

A few wishes of mine

1. Make your demigod portrait interact-able. If I want to heal myself as Sedna I would like to be able to click heal and then on my portrait, not having to spend 5 seconds to make sure I don't use it on one of the 17 minions that are in front of me.

2. Add similar but smaller portraits to the upper right of the screen showing your allied Demigods, these should be interact-able as well and also show a health/mana bar for them. Perhaps you should be able to shift click their portrait as well to autoscroll the camera to them.

3. Make the whole UI scalable, Playing on the lower settings makes the UI take up too much of your screen. Something similar to what is used in WoW to scale your ui would be great.

Being able to click on a portrait to cast a spell on that person (or yourself) is something that must be in a game such as this. Good call.

#1 and #2 are very implementable and would make everything so much more convenient. 

And underneath ur allied demigods portrait it should show their current life and mana.

I very much agree with all three of those ideas. I especially like the idea of making the UI scalable, as in many MMORPGs. I have to put up with 1024x768 at the moment and it really does bother me about the lack of space at the sides.

I agree with all of those as well, although adding your allies health and mana might take up to much screen space.

I agree with all ideas! I actually tried casting heal spells but noticed it was not possible to select the picture of the demigod. Also the idea of allies being shown will be a good idea. I miscasted a spell allready because I missed the demigod.

Another wish of mine is that text of the chat is shown at all times. I think it improves the gameplay. Now you have to press enter to see if you have a new message.
