Player comparison

Open AuroraLS3 opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

I would like to be able to..

Compare two or more players and increase the amount of interactive analysis tools available to users

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The manual analysis tools of the plugin are currently limited to the query page.

Players and their activity can be compared to one another. My idea:

  • Have a button next to any player name that adds the player to comparison, and have that button on player page too
  • Have the comparison float on top of the page
  • Allow typing in player names to the floating comparison widget
  • the comparison list follows user on the website so that they can go to comparison results once they have chosen players
  • the comparison shows a horizontal stacked bar chart of online-offline player sessions for the chosen players
  • the comparison shows a table of statistics with players as columns, and the highest or lowest value is highlighted per row
  • the comparison has three comparison tabs: all time, 30d and 7d.
  • Optional: The comparison window can be moved backwards or forwards

What does this solve?

  • Allows viewing if two players have been online at the same time
  • Another way to see who has bigger numbers (more interesting to players)
  • Lays in the groundwork for comparing groups of players.

That sounds so nice, could there be eventually (unless I miss this) a sort of top 5/top 10 function with given things like vault, external points (like the playerpoints integration I requested), the playtime (sorted by total, active, afk?) etc.? Either way, a 2 person comparison also opens up a lot of new possibilities aswell!

You can use the server playertable for sorting by plugin data to get a top 10
