Page View for listing group members

[suirad]

Reported by TheJD that once a groups members is large, the mc client has issues displaying all of the members.

This could be alleviated by making a page like view, similar to viewing snitch logs on JukeAlert.

He also requested that the list be viewed alphabetically, which *should be do-able once the page listing is completed.

It would be nice, but not required, if we have pagination to also have formatting -- e.g. four/five columns of names per line, 5-6 lines per page, so 20-30 names per page, but readable. The density of display has always been a serious problem.

This is something that could be more common of an issue once sharding is done; with the anticipated player count. The display problem is something we may just have to deal with unfortunately with the minecraft client. The 3 ways i can think to do it are:

• As you said, manually display columns of names, shows X number of names per page.
• Use CivGuide to generate a book containing all of the player names.
• Use CivMenu to display the pages, using the yellow "selectable" parts to display each player, with a click command.

Any one of them is doable.

Stop talking sense, jjj.

Yeah, tabular response generation could be a reasonable add to civmodcore.

Well we never actually added a page view, but instead added a way to limit your search
