Multiple linkshells suggestion.

What I said about the current mechanics still blocking its usefulness when in crafting mode still stands until they fix that aspect though.

IMO that is a defect of crafting/gathering and not a defect of the proposed feature.

Especially with the timer for crafting being removed, it makes a lot of sense for the system to be adjusted to allow for certain commands that can't currently be performed while it is in progress.

This I very much agree with, it is a problem with crafting. But I do believe that it is the crafters who are fighting hardest for the ability to use a /ls[n] command so it is understandable to be frustrated that this so called solution will be useless until they do fix it to work hand in hand with crafting. I also have not read any mention of this being fixed in the forseeable future, hence the frustration.



Edit: As an afterthought, it is possible that it will serve a use to crafters afterall. Not in its intended fashion but as a text command outside of a macro, just straight into the chat box. I'm not sure if it will work and it's not as convenient but it may work. A simple /ls[n] command is still better IMHO but a /el [n] command would suffice.

I appologise to SE for jumping down their throat about the conflict between macros/hot keys and crafting, I got too tied up in the concept that they would be the only way to use this.

Time to necrobump~!

There has been some progress on the LS switching front, so I’d like to update you all a bit.
In patch 1.22 the text command “/equiplinkshell (/el)” will be added. As a sub-command you can indicate “1-8” or input the linkshell name (in quotes) and it will be possible to switch to that linkshell.

Also, we will be adding the below items to the Main Menu under Configuration → Keyboard → Other, and it will be possible to assign them to the key of your choice.

• Switch to your next linkshell
• Switch to linkshell 1
• Switch to linkshell 2
• Switch to linkshell 3
• Switch to linkshell 4
• Switch to linkshell 5
• Switch to linkshell 6
• Switch to linkshell 7
• Switch to linkshell 8
• Unequip your current linkshell

Epic fail.

LS Management is the most important aspect of the Linkshell System, period. Linkshells are just basically chatrooms right now, and no ability whatsoever to kick someone outside of XYZ range.

We've been asking for this since... BETA!

And like they said long time before , SE has some big problems with improving linkshell management because of the server problems, but seems lot of people chose to forget this fact and think that this improvement would be easy to do...

You'll probably have to wait 2.0 for a better linkshell management and, at this time, linkshell will definitely return to their chat channels statut since free companies will become the real guilds of final fantasy xiv .

Agreed even a text command /pcmd lsadd <name> /pcmd lskick <name> would be a welcome addition, I mean how hard can that be to add ?

I think "pcmd" is short for party command, but something like "/lcmd" or "/lscmd" followed by the usual things like "add", "kick", etc, would work.

Exactly...
