Selectable names in chat

Isn't it a hassle to find somebody in a crowded town every time?
I would like selectable names in chat. So you can drag their name of the chat and when you mouseover their box they highlight (like it is already).

You can drag people off your FL to find them...

Did i get that right and you want to have the same feature for avatar names in local chat?

Yep... Msg to short...

I tend to stay away from overcrowded places like twin or PA anyway, but might be useful for others (bno more need for those "@ boxes" additions)

Should be np to code it, as you are able to drag the health bar for everyone in sight anyway, it just... in a real lively local chat it would be hard to grab the right persons name from chat, don't you think?

Brilliant idea, +rep-I hate when people say 'XXX at tp' when there are 20 or so people crowded around it for example. This would be incredibly useful!

If you can drag names from chat to help locate ppl then how will I be able to play the

"Buying sweat for 1.0 at tp" when im really standing outside the city walls game in PA?

ppl will be able to find me and i will be overloaded with trade requests

they should add a special "trade-chat"!
