Starker Posted October 29, 2018 Posted October 29, 2018 Scanner readouts (Plant Analyzer, Cyborg Analyzer, Health Analyzer, etc) should appear in a popup window. Frequently, I have to scroll up in the chat to find my readout because the Common channel is too busy and the readout gets buried.

Fox McCloud Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 From experience, this is usually more annoying, since you have to contend with a window (that'll have to be close and/or moved around) and the chat, simultaneously. It's easier to scroll up/down (and faster), than it is to deal with a pop up, constantly.

Lot of talk to be had too. Weigh in the fact you have emotes, OTHER channels other than common & 7 tile speech, the constant shaking of the text area as you battle to read the scanner's report before losing it to the chat automatically moving because of the new text.

McRamon Posted November 3, 2018 Posted November 3, 2018 If you found analyzer in maint and at some point of time scanned yourself for injuries - sure. Medbay madness will make you hate your suggestion when you have to close 10 tabs per second.

Pennwick Posted November 4, 2018 Posted November 4, 2018 If it was a single window that just refreshed every time you clicked on a new/same person it might actually be useful. Just position it over on the side and scan away.
