Team order in the top panel should be fixed #458

Open Agiel opened 4 days ago

Agiel commented 4 days ago

Description

Currently your own team is always on the left, however, this conflicts with the scoreboard where Jinrai is always on the left (in OG NT, always on top).

Proposed Solution

Make the team order fixed with Jinrai always on the left.

Alternatives Considered

Make the scoreboard dynamic as well to put your team always on the left. Too much effort for too little benefit? I could be convinced otherwise...

Additional Context

Once we eventually add the alternative squad display, the list of players on your squad should always appear on the left for parity. We could implement it so that it instead appears on the right if you're on nsf. There is also the display of what squad you are currently in which would have to be moved to the right when you're on nsf

We can't move the corner display to the right because that'd overlap the kill feed. The top center HUD is only a problem because it aligns with the scoreboard and contains similar info. In the left corner you only see one team at a time so there's no real conflict there.

Only your own squad mates are displayed on the top center hud marker. I'm saying it would look weird if two bits of information related to your squad (the squad you are in and the people in your squad) would be intersected by the enemy team profile pictures

First of all, I don't think we should ever display both the old squad list and the new top bar at the same time. It should be a cvar that toggles the display of one or the other. Second, you keep talking about squads, but that's completely irrelevant. I don't know why we even have squads implemented. It's a useless feature and for any UX considerations you should assume that the entire team is in Alpha.
