AkiraS Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Hello, I did not scroll through all the posts and headlines, therefore excuse me if i open a topic which IMHO should be on top of the list or there should be thousands of similar topics. I'm wondering if the developer who implemented the location panel did USE it once. I can not understand why it is not possible to search for a location. For example, my friend suggests: Let's meet at "The Lake" ... nice! And I have a real hard time to find that location! Sometimes I have to ask is it on top/middle/bottom. So please improve that panel as quickly as possible! Add a search field make the list sortable (by adding some headers to each column) Maybe you could add a teleport option as well, so when my friend is at "The Lake" she can invite me to meet her there and if i accept i would be teleported to the place where she currently is located on that location. Thank you so much! Akira JenC, BellaGirl, Kaitlyn1989 and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenC Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 To answer your first question, for the first few years of 3DX the location panel was adequate as there was rarely enough worlds to make you scroll at all, then along came the World Builder and also a huge influx of new users over the past couple of years has made it so the interface is not fit for purpose anymore and needs a good overhaul.

Diana Prince Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 With this method (bump your room with xgold), the users may buy additional xgold (=money for the dev). I would be surprised if it gets changed, but it would help SO much for finding a room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much! Akira The option of teleporting from room to room seems to me a good solution. I've used it in other games before.

EvaMarie Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 The devs will certainly not give up this goldmine, but at least a search function would be very nice and people could still put a lot of xgold into pushing their rooms.

I hope they rethink their strategy to make the experience better for the end users (those are finally the ones who spend the xgold) and even for the room promoters. For example tags. When you search matches a certain tag the promoted rooms could appear in a featured list or be highlighted with color symbols etc. thelost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelost Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Thx to the developers of this nice metaworld. I also agree that navigating locations is very inconvenient now. I guess EvaMarie is right that developers will not drop the idea of leveling up. But there are numerous ways to keep leveling up and still improve user experience. In addition to what others suggest I can think of this: If user opened location For All, add direct link to this location in this user's menu (where Slow Dance and other is located) or profile. If user is in some location, add direct link to this location in the menu or profile (it may be game option - whether user wants to disclose location to all / to friends / or to none).
