[dev1035] Improvement of Targeting (discuss)

[kukurumei]

Nuu there goes the option to target yourself with Down Arrow key on the gamepad Oh well gotta live with it I guess. This probably scratches the possibility that we get to bind the camera on the arrow keys as well? That wouldn't be that wise ;o;

The keyboarders gotta switch to gamepad then :P

I hope that wasn't everything for the 1.16a patch :O But we'll see. 1.17 will be just around the corner hopefully!

Well 1st member should be you so pressing down should theoretically start with yourself, if you weren't moving it around. Assuming they follow FF11's lead in that.

Though it's a bit more hassle, since FF14 has 8 members and FF11 has 6, there is no alliance that can slow it down. If they were smart enough to have the arrow sign also on the side party member bars, then you don't have to track down anyone's position, just follow the list.

This is all assuming they're taking the FF11 lead, of course. If they make another 8 headed monster UI...
And binding camera keys has always been kinda non needed with target locks, one of FF11's inherence. Good and bad, but mostly good depending on how well they got the chase camera down.

But yes there was, and should still be an option, and they have 90% of the FF11 key-settings down anyway. num-7-9 was camera rotate and page up was zoom out page down was zoom in, etc.

Thus was the start of the one handed playing style of that no other MMO before could achieve. FF11 for all its warts was not shy in making something that was horribly effective at both controlling and communicating at the same time.

Left hand, typing, occasional tabbing and macro execution
Right hand - All other movement and selection functions. (number pad mostly)
