Popular Post BelgiumFury Posted September 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2021 So a few months ago we had the pleasure of getting nation description boxes, most people did in fact not like them, i still despise them suckers. But they were gone. Untill yesterday, when the fire nation attacked and they are back (without notice i think?). Can we please: Not have boxes with a scroll bar on our nation page. (so like they were untill like two days ago). OR Have the option to remove them in our personal settings. I am perpetually scrolling on nations but not going down because I am going down in nation descriptions instead. I am extremely This is a stupid subject which I am far too opinionated about, please remove them again. I beg you Alex. Thanks in advance. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is impossible to give people the choice though, please revert to how it was before. (this patch made my little doggo cry).don't mind me not actually having a dog.

zigbigadorlou Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 So, there's actually an option for this except it works opposite of how it's supposed to. Under account settings, there's a setting that alex had us test and was implemented that says "Hide custom nation descriptions by default:" If you look at my nation, you'll see a button that says "hide nation description" because I have that option clicked.

This is not the issue I am having here. The issue is that this scroll bar (see attachement of origin's nation) exists. I enabled the option you said and it is still there on my nation. Morever i really just dont want a scroll bar anywhere. A simple show / hide nation description button would be the life, if that's not possible just show them all.

That's exactly what I'm referring to. Everything is fixed just by having the show-hide button on everyone instead of an opt-in. I think I'll make a QoL thread for that specifically because those tend to get implemented rather quickly. Quote Hey Krampus, the signature edit is under account settings.

I'd agree. We need that button too (it is very usefull). Misunderstood you, thanks! Edited September 27, 2021 by BelgiumFury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Alex Posted September 28, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 28, 2021 I re-implemented this because I was getting so many reports about people having nation descriptions that are too long. The scrollbox (which only applies if you have a nation description that exceeds 2000 pixels in height -- so pretty big) is there to eliminate that issue. I can create a setting so that it's optional, and I'll get working on that this week. I'll leave the default to allow super long descriptions to scroll and then if you really don't want that you can turn it off in your settings. Thank you for the feedback on this, and sorry I forgot to publicly post that this change was rolled out. 1 Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics?

I feel that's a better solution than making scroll bars optional (although that sure is preferable over the current option). It's already programmed in, so don't you think that would be better? @Alex 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you atleast disable it on mobile in the meantime, it is actually harder to reach the bottom of the page since I have to flick down to the bottom of the box before I can flick down to the nation information. Without the boxes its actually easier to get past long descriptions on mobile than with them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heya @Alex i know this comment has been done but have you looked at zig's suggestion in the meanwhile? I feel it is a lot better of a suggestion to make people decide themselves if they want scrollbars on other people's nation pages. Otherwise people can still annoy eachother by making them long and not have a hide button (mainly on mobile i'd imagine, as @Indrasi Indoril mentioned). If a nation description is long and im in a war id just like to hide it instead of some weird scrolling shenanigans. I don't think this would be too difficult, and i feel like it would really help. Thanks for looking into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
