Local chat : add an option to sort the Pilot list by standing
The purpose:
To have an effective tool that allows you to see rapidly incoming enemies into the system.
Why ? (example : Mining session)
- When you work with the "Local chat" often you need to use the scrollbar because you can't display on your screen, the entire list of pilot in the system and you can lost your ship if you mist to use the scrollbar to see the enemies (I lost a ship that way). In addition, frequently use a scroll bar to see if an enemy is in the system is quite boring (Scrollbar is not an elegant solution).
How ?
- In the right column (list of pilot in the system) add an option in "Channel setting" menu, to rank pilots based on their standing.
- Obviously, this option will also use the standings that a player can have manually given to another player, corporation or alliance.
- This option will rank the pilots with the worst standing in top of the list 
- The default value for this option is Off (uncheck)
Peace and fly safe ! |

Hello,
As you know, this improvement in the local chat window will shows the names of the pilots with bad standing in top of the list.
One of the big advantage of this improvement will be will not be forced to go out and stretch the window of Local Chat to try to see pilots with bad standing.
On the screen, the playing surface will be bigger because the Local chat window may remain in place with the other windows chat.
Think big and fly safe! |

Think big and fly safe! Which is, as has been said repeatedly, a huge buff to local. Why does 100% free intel need to be even better?
Because this improvement will save ships and will expand the playing surface which is enough clutter.
But for those who like to destroy mining barges, I admit that it will be a bit more boring!

Hello,
I do not think we have to discuss the IT solution. It is rather CCP arrived with a solution.
On my screen 23 ", this improvement will allow me to retrieve a playing surface of 2.5" X 8.5 "(65x210mm approx.).

edited. i like how the current system means that pro-active players who are vigilant get to keep their ships. and lazy ppl die in a fire.
First, you'll have to stop to change the text that I wrote.
Secondly, you're probably the kind of player who is glorified when attacking small vessel or barge. In my country we call this type of person A looser!
It is not a matter of laziness but a question of visibility and also ergonomics.
And in conclusion, If you would be a slightly smart enough, you would know that when you move a ship OR we transfer the equipment OR when you are aligning your barge YOU are vulnerable because you do not have time to check the Local chat.
So, this improvement declutter the screen also allows you to see if an enemy is in the system and without having to use the mouse wheel
If all the gameplay is limited to using a mouse wheel, say it is not very strong!!
And now stop to cry.

Addition for the names of the pilots with bad standing in top of the list.:
What would also be nice for a list of Local chat pilots would have the same graphics representation of the Overview : Pilot name with in background, the standing color.
Standing visibility would be better. |

Standing visibility would be better. Why not just add in the option to right click the name, and warp to the pilot, while you are at it? This already devalues both sensors, as well as any effort towards clever gameplay, to the point we are just playing a science fiction MOBA. Let's just make the systems objects all be on grid, and use chat bubbles next to the ship instead.
I do not think it would be a good solution.
Have a less cluttered screen and have a better display order for Pilots list in the local chat would be welcome !

If it becomes so simple, that any effort results in the best possible results, competition will be effectively lowered to whether players are watching the screen or not. It seems to me, that you don't you like strategy. Since you are removing so many opportunities to use it here...
YES you're right! I don't like stupid strategy when your strategy is limited to play with the mouse wheel and clutter uselessly the screen with a lot of window. |

Hello,
- If you want a better "Intel" which will quickly see the enemy coming (without having to play all the time with the ****** mouse wheel!)
- If you want fewer windows on the screen and by the very fact better see the universe around you
-If you do not want to be at a disadvantage compared to other players who have either a larger screen that you or they play in less dense areas population ...
- Vote for this simple improvement for Local chat window. Everyone except "Barge Ganker"  will come out winner.

Fly safe Why should we balance an MMO against players who interact with other players? This is a big advantage you are throwing to players, who specifically are most likely to use it to avoid interacting with other players.
Hello,
It will not change the interaction between the players. AFK player or the player who does not look Local Chat will always be a good target.
This improvement would at least free up space on the screen and see the enemy coming without requiring all the time playing with mouse wheel.
Is this so hard to understand? a little user friendliness in the game is necessary. I do not want to play with a lot of windows, I want to see the universe around me, I want more space in screeeeeeeeeeeeeen......

Hello,
Highsec miner : when you have a lot of pilot in the system, this improvement is for you :
- If you want a better "Intel" which will quickly see the enemy coming (without having to play all the time with the ****** mouse wheel!)

-If you do not want to be at a disadvantage compared to other players who have either a bigger screen that you or they play in less dense areas population ...

Hello,
At the risk of repeating myself :
This enhancement request corrects an imbalance of the game (Feels Like mostly in zone Highsec) and especially it can unclutter the screen.
So, it offers better visibility in the Local Chat and screen.
While waiting for a complete redesign of Intel, the request to the advantage of being fairly simple to make.
And relax you can always make pew pew on a AFK player or the player who does not check the Local Chat.
Fly safe,
