Hello, I would like to suggest an UI improvement. Please make that either in ledger or the character finder list thing there is a column that shows everyone's focus if they are a ruler an so can have it. Thanks!

I hope it wasn't suggested before, I did a search and nothing came up.

We are quite swamped for interface space in our game and don't want to over crowd it. So its hard to see where I could fit it, especially in the character finder. If you have a suggestion on how it would look I would gladly have a look at it.
 
Could the finder be made slightly wider, so there could be a third column alongside religion and ambition?
 
You know that little claim icon you added?

Move it up the portrait to be about 1/3 from the top. Then add a new icon 2/3 from the top under it. Make it like an intrigue/court icon and in that you can put:

"Ambition: Wants to have a Daughter."
"Plot Leader: Kill Random dude 5183."
"Plot Backer: Revoke County XYZ."
"Focus: Seduction."

You could even add other information to it. ;)

No, our minimum resolution we support is like 800x600 I believe.

Won't it look over crowded? Since the finder won't need closing with the new interaction menu, is it actually nessecary to see that there?
 
Personally I don't think it needs to be there at all, you can click the character portrait to see someones focus and other information.

The only reason you would want to add a focus icon, is so you know what someones focus is. I honestly can not think of any reason you would want to see everyones focus. It has no major impact on anything.

But you asked the question. I don't think it will look anymore overcrowded than it does now. I doubt it would be what some people are asking for though. Having not played in 800x600, I am not sure how much information of the character screen you can see with the character finder on. The situation however is exactly the same as claims, except there is a reason for wanting to be able to see who is a claimant.
