Main Interface Coming To Life


Well I have gotten the basic interface created. What you are seeing in this shot is the main list view where the list of pilots will show up and a toolbar that goes to 4 different views. 
  • Top Players - These are players that are currently holding a top position in any stat. For example, the player with most kills, or most time played, etc. The list will look different than just a list of the pilots. There will be a sub heading in a smaller font that will tell what they are top in. And like all the views, when you tap the player, it will go to a detailed view of that pilot.
  • Online Players - These are players that are currently online. I'd like to have this update in real time and maybe have it alert you if certain players some on, but alas that is not doable by Apple's user agreement for iPhone apps. But maybe this will change.
  • Search - This is where you will go to search for a specific player. The list will be the same as you see, but a text bar will show up where you can type in the player name.
  • Squad Members - This will be a list of other players in the same squad as you. I will have an option where you set the name of your squad and your own characters name.
I am considering a favorites view too where you can add you favorite players to a seperate list for quick lookup.

As always, everything is subject to change as more info about how this data is going to be handled by NetDevil.
