    Lightbulb Character Selection

    I know this isn't a high priority idea, But how hard would it be to allow you to move the placement of your character's around in the character selection screen? I know it's not that big of a pain, but the character that I am currently playing is at the bottom of the selection screen, and it's a slight annoyance to scroll down to select him everytime. Like I said, Its not a big deal, just a small suggestion

    Yeah, I want that too. I think the characters should be in login order, from most recent on down. Don't know if its an easy change or not.

    Manually change order with arrows on the side to move the "current selection" up/down. I'd prefer my main at the top with my alts following and mules below that. On one sub it's not that way... somehow in adding/deleting characters the eventual main got stuck in the middle and wouldn't move to the top even when I deleted/recreated the characters above. Having an auto sort option would also be nice.

    This would be cool or allow us to move them, cause currently my most played character is in the 6/6 slot, so I have to scroll down everytime I log in.

    Can you implement the same code you use for dragging things around on quickslots into the Character Selection screen?

    100% agreed. Somebody will always prefer a different ordering, whether it be character creation time, login time, level, or whatnot, so it would be ideal if the player could select their own ordering.

    Re: Character Selection

    I was wondering if anyone else thought this, I'm glad I'm not alone. I actually wound up deleting lesser used characters so my main could be at the top... lol

    Re: Character Selection

    /signed! I like this. A tweaking to the character selection screen in general would be nice, since with a full roster you have to scroll through your characters. It just needs a layout update.

    It seems like the right answer is to design the UI so you don't have to scroll.

    Yes,lengthen the size so they all fit in or shrink the fonts so they all fit in.

    In future expansions are there going to be new classes? if so size adjustment probably will not be the answer, but a revamp of the UI will be the only option to see all at the same time.
    one of each, except the bear

    Except I'm really hoping for at least two more character slots (even if I have to pay a one-time fee to open them up).

    I'm still waiting or our weapons equipped to show up on the character screen...... But then T has a problem with us having the weapons show up in our hands unless we are in combat (which for mps means no weapons at all).
