Guest Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Suggestion Name: Highlight player that come closer Suggestion Description: In the tab "Players near you" it would be nice, if players would marked green, if the distance is increasing and marked red, if the distance is decreasing..Any example images: - Why should it be added?: Easy seeing, which players are near. Good on intersections to check what you see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Dragon Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I can see where you are coming from with this and I think it would be nice to have something to make it easier to identify who's nearer or the farthest, however, the players list already have a distance meter. What I think would work better is if the names would switch places around as the distances change. Like... the nearest a player is to you, the closer his/her name shows to yours, for example. The downside to that is the frequency which names would change around. Would probably make it confusing to keep track of someone in particular you might want, for instance. I guess that with that being said, just colors might be the best route. Which after all makes my post somewhat irrelevant. lol I just wonder if that would cause any extra load on the client since they'll have extra data to process. 3 Some people should really get a license before even thinking about buying Euro Truck Simulator 2 or American Truck Simulator.

Guest Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 But adding an option to sort your list by distance shouldn't be that difficult to implement. Maybe both in combination would be fine. But a to sort your list by distance would be a big improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragon Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Currently the tab menu shows the order of the players near you based who's been around you the longest. For example, a new player coming into your area appears at the very bottom. I agree that the players near you list could be sorted differently.

Guest Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Yes, it'd be better and more understable to sort by distance instead of by... I don't see how to call that... well let's be simple in the name : The actual system. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakes Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 This is a practical proposition. Even if only the distance were to change colour from green to red, depending on whether it is increasing or decreasing would be suitable, as opposed to the name also.I think the current method for the arrangement of players in the Tab menu is adequate as is. +1 Currently: En Route: Nowhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 What could be interresting would be a color code for the security distance :0-70m : Red, it's too low70-100m : Orange, a little more would be better100m and + : Green, distance is OK It'd be useful in convoy because by just checking the name's color we would see if we should leave more space or not.

Omer_D Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 System already give you the distance between you and another player by meter so this suggestion is useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rootyyy Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 This could be useful, but as said up there, the distance meter is already there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RequieB Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 yes, but the players are already showing the distance. I think it's an invalid idea. RequieB Game Moderator of the Year 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrobcio Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 So maybe sort players by the distance on tab list not by who you've spotted first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoneeYT Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 You could highlight players too if they get sorted in the direction of the meters they are away from you, so at the top there is you, underneath you in your nearest player and so on.
