I heard someone talk of buffing Highsec PVE. I heard highsec PVE deals with Missions. I heard missions use standings.



Proposal:

- Break down the "Liked By / Disliked By" tabs into 3 tabs
- Make each tab show their respective standings from best to worst in descending order.


Example:

[ Factions | Corporations | Agents ]


I made a picture to showcase how it could look: http://imgur.com/Kz28EDo
Note this picture was made using 125% UI scale.


Reasoning Behind Change:

It took me 44 scroll wheel scrolls to get to the bottom of my Standings "Liked By" tab @ 90% UI Scaling. Not even PI wrecks my mouse as fast. I don't even want to think of how much scrolling it would take at 125%.


* Remember If you implement this, there's also standings in the Corporation Window.

Hint: You can change the size of the character sheet window to make it longer.

Set monitor on side - portrait mode
expand window the entire screen
1920 pixels @ 90% Ui scale

31 scroll wheel scrolls

Why not.

You don't even need to make it tabs. The standings are already divided into these 3 categories; all CCP needs to do is to make the section headers allow to expand/collapse the section like in the skills menu. What this section also needs is a filter box allowing you to filter for faction/standings/corps/the standard filter search by letter.

Iain, I am not going to turn my monitor into Portrait mode just to watch my standings and expand my Char window to max possible length. Come on now, that's just ridiculous.

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

If they changed the standings tab to three expandable tabs so that data was only pulled from the server when you opened the tab for either, Faction, Corporation or Agents that would ease the amount of data pulled from the server and speed up loading of the Standings tab.

When CCP removed the ability to look at another pilot's standings ingame I think the reason they gave was to ease server load.

Reread that post, wasn't me who suggested that. I agree it's ridiculous, however I also think OP's whining about this is just as ridiculous. Ten years I've been playing this game, and I've never had to flip go through the standings page of the character sheet so much its length has been an issue. It's far, far easier when looking for standings for a prticular group to check that group's standings tab on thier info page.

^^what he said and perhaps add the "show below X" or "over X" option too



tabbing the standings with faction/corp/agent and grouping the positive and negative into same page is more trouble then its worth it
