Hello developers and community reps.
I am wondering if you are looking into the issue where we miss parts of the party and linkshell chat while changing zones. I hope it would be possible for you to create the new UI in a way that lets it receive these chat lines even while we are changing areas, it would be pretty nice if you managed to do this.
I don't know if this is purely an interface issue, or if it is also a server architecture issue. it could perhaps be a combination of both. In either case, I would be very glad if you would say you'd at least look into it and see if it's actually possible to do without spending insane amounts of resources.
All I know is that it's kind of frustrating and sometimes awkward when you have no idea if your lsmates or party members actually saw what you wrote to them. In party chat, you can sometimes tell if they would lose the messages if you paid attention to when their zone-name changed, but not all zoning changes the zone name, such as when entering or exiting the mog house.
