Allow Gamechat to be Moved

Post by chapcrap »

Concise description:
  • Allow the game chat to be moved and resized while playing.
Specifics/Details:
  • Create a link/button/whatever that allows you to unpin gamechat from the bottom of the game.
  • Once gamechat is unpinned, allow the moving and resizing of it.
  • Movement can happen by dragging the top bar of the game chat around the screen.
  • Resizing can happen by clicking and holding on the bottom right corner of unpinned gamechat screen.
  • When gamechat is moved to an area, it appears there inherently when unpinned in other games until it is moved.
    • To elaborate: the game chat will always be pinned when going to a new game, but when you unpin it, it goes automatically to the spot you last left it and the same size.
  • An option will be created to let players repin the chat in an area that they wish.
How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • This will allow for better in game communication in team games.
  • Allow for better in-game diplomacy for singles games.
  • Possibly reduce secret diplomacy because people will be aware of chatting in games instead of walls/PMs.
  • Help abate the need for the chatglove addon.
