Jorgensen Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Detailed Description More impactful /highlight feature for accessibility, whether it plays a sound whenever the person(s) /highlight'd speaks or interacts, as of now, the command highlights /me and /dos from the highlighted individual. But, only gives talking lines a [!] at the start of it. In groups of large people this is problematic as people who are dsylexic already find it hard to difficult to pay attention to the chat while reading the highlighted roleplay lines (And a lot of other people talking whereas the chat is highlighted not so much when a /highlighted individual speaks). I'd like to suggest that talking is highlighted in a similar way to /me and /do lines so its easier to notice when the person you are interacting with directly says something. Or /highlight off sets the /highlighted players chat slightly. Relevant Commands/Items N/A How will it benefit the server? Improves the useability of /highlight as right now, in crowded areas it still proves a pain if there are a lot of people talking in one area. 2 Link to comment
Fenris Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 +1 I'm so blind I don't even notice the [!] sometimes.... Link to comment
Triple Seven Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Sure, maybe it could color the regular chat in a somewhat darker tint of the chosen color, so it doesn't seem like it's all emotes. Just a tip: Don't forget /highlightcolor exists (try 00fbff for more contrast, works great even on lighter backgrounds), and use /timestamps to get more of a tell than just [!] at the start of a roleplay line.

BINGBONGBALONEY Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 hell yeah supporting, would benefit myself and other american rpers greatly maybe add the option to not have the sound however, my long days in rotc have left me a little shook and venerable to sounds like the taco bell dong that currently plays when highlighting a fellow rper Link to comment
stringer Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I actually hate the fact that /me and /do change color when highlighted instead of using [!]. I'm against this and I honestly believe it all should just use [!] instead of that vomit pink. Link to comment

I'm against this and I honestly believe it all should just use [!] instead of that vomit pink. My idea is to solve the fact that [!] doesn't help everyone. It's difficult to if you're in a crowded area where the chat is constantly being moved up. Cause the problem still stands of if you're dsylexic half the time you're still struggling to read the chat, so how is that symbol going to help when it isn't entirely noticable in normal circumstances?

Euphoria Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I found the current highlight to be decently noticeable, but if it's easily changed, which I assume it more than likely is, then I'm all for it. Link to comment
