Collection of assorted suggestions that improve the standard of comfort. These suggestions are typically not aesthetic, but rather commands or UI improvements.

Resetting shouldn't reset minimap access by Slabdrill
List-based world portal selection instead of the usual left/right mechanism by Trytu (point 2)
Indicate whether or not a favorited world is visible false / friends only by Trytu (point 5)
Allow permanently saving code by Slabdrill
Make mini maps always appear for the world owner/crew members by Emily (similar suggestion by Trytu)
Sending PMs to multiple people at once by pncordik (similar suggestion by SoapFish
Disabling particles should disable death animations by MWstudios
Disable or enable ninja / robber's invisible minimap trail by Kira
Energy received in campaigns will "overfill". If you receive 100 energy and are currently at 450/500, your energy will become 550/500. by Anatoly
Place checkpoints in front of players by Emily
Rebinding Keys by Pingohits (Similar suggestion by Latif)
Increase NPC name character limit by Slabdrill
Allow NPCs to have spaces in names by Jet
Search world by size (E.G. 400*200, 50*50) by HG
Show NPC names one at a time, starting from nearest by Raphe9000
Allow creation of nameless NPCs by Raphe9000
A warning for changing usernames by Minisaurus
Various suggestions regarding morphable blocks | Aetherii, Yonanoke, Jersa, Schlog, Xfrogman43
Set profile to be friends-only by nitromegamer007
Make smiley bar wider, not higher by Gosha
Compressed shop UI by Schlog
/visible false world messages by Emily
A ton of suggestions by Sensei1
Various pop-up & command suggestions by Oray
Let people leave design contest crews by Slabdrill
Skip / shorten death animation by Slabdrill
Technical suggestions by benedani
Show multiple worlds per friends by Creature
Transfer crew ownership by zioxei
Improvements to /listportals as well as the addition of /listswitches by Trytu

And some personal suggestions:

Show world creator for favorited tab
More order options for personal worlds. The current order is A -> Z; perhaps we could have Z -> A, world size from smallest to largest (and vice versa)
Put some sort of graphical barrier between used and unused worlds for differentiation

There are also suggestions which are difficult to reach a practical consensus. I'll leave them here if anyone wants to tackle them:

Remove worlds from crew
Rehaul the Featured tab
Rehaul the Inbox
Disconnect protection. In other words, a failsafe for worlds if one ever loses connection in the midst of building.

If anyone has topics to add, please do so in the comments. And remember, this is not a list for new blocks or smileys.

Just going to reply to a few of these:

I don't see why resetting shouldn't reset minimap access?
We already did make minimaps always appear for owners along with the map block update.
You already can search by world size, HG just wanted to be able to use * instead of x.
We already did make it so that only one NPC name is shown at once.
I'm pretty sure we can't allow removing worlds from crews, theres too many problems that I don't think theres any way to address...

We also have some of the other features planned for future updates, although I'm not going to say which just in case we run into problems and can't do them.

I’m in the list ?

such as?

The only official reason (and i think it was in ee chat, not even on the forum) we've ever gotten for not adding this is someone can add a world to crew, have crew members work on the world, then remove from the crew and have the owner take all the credit.
If that's the only reason, I'm sure you'll find some counterpoints in at least one of the like 8 threads asking for it.

Even in that one scenario, couldn't crews just self-police? If you see one of your crew members taking full credit for a world that they didn't make alone, wouldn't you just kick them out of your crew and never build worlds with them ever again? Maybe even warn others of his true nature? That can really destroy someone's reputation and as such I doubt anyone with a shred of common sense would risk doing it.

I was more talking about too many problems with the possible fixes for the stealing worlds thing. I've read through all the threads you linked here, and I haven't seen a solution that doesn't have at least one reason why it wouldn't work...

So... The problem is that you could add a world to a crew, have the whole crew work on it, then remove the world and claim it as your own (or just remove and clear it if you wanted another world).
There are two main solutions given for this, the first is that you have to get permission from the crew owner. The reason that this wouldn't work is that the crew owner may be the one trying to steal the world, and you can't just require all crew members to agree or something because crew members are likely to be inactive, so that will mean that worlds are just never removed (or end in crew members being kicked if there was an argument)
The second solution is to only allow the removal of empty worlds, but that will just end up with people clearing worlds so they can get them back if they've had an argument or something, which I don't think we really want...

Slabdrill · 2018-08-08 23:00:18

my counterpoint to that is actually that you can still steal worlds when it's not even in a crew.
it's very easy to get friends to help on a world and then not give them credit, because you don't want to spend a world on a crew in case you never finish it because you can't remove the world or something like that.
the only thing the inability to remove worlds from a crew does is make me wait until worlds are like 50% done with help from everyone in the crew before adding it to the crew for the QoL factor of not needing to manually give edit.

I once suggested Switches listing, I think it's enough good suggestion to add that here
