Good:
- I very much like the ability to lock items in the inventory so they can't be sold or destroyed. I wasn't playing for a while before the server merge, until a few days ago, so this is new to me.
- The interface is a lot more clean and minimal than some I've seen.
Bad:
- I get notified, both on the forums and on the compass window in game about announcements that aren't in my language. Perhaps the one in game could show only announcements for the client language or perhaps there could be an option on the forums for preferred language that would affect both?
- It's very hard to move the action bars sometimes. It's very hard to select / highlight the bar. The activation area for this is small and difficult to find.
- I can't tell which windows are locked to movement and which are not unless I manage to highlight them (which you can't do if they're locked).
- Quest NPC speech balloons can be easily hidden by objects like walls. In some cases, it's quite inconvenient to find a camera position that allows me to read all of it.
Bugs:
- The camera zoom is not saved between sessions. I always start in first-person view.
- When an NPC has multiple quests on his/her right-click menu, the top one is often chosen, even if I don't click that one. A prominent example is the leaving Silan mission from Chiang the Strong. If you have that mission and any other one from him at the same time, he will only talk to you about leaving Silan, no matter what option you choose, unless you abandon the quest or choose the second mission from his right-click menu while he's talking about leaving Silan.
- When I'm supposed to turn in an item to an NPC for a quest, I often see multiple "Give 1 item"s on the right-click menu.
- Double quotes don't show up in numbered channels: /0 So last night, Bob told me, "Blah blah blah!"

- Debuffs I'm encumbered with often show as death penalty on mouse-over.
What I don't use:
- The mp3 player, even if it would work on the Linux client.
Enhancements:
- Change the "lock/unlock" right-click menu item to "lock" or "unlock" as appropriate.
- Have an option to either refrain from adding newly learned actions to the action bar, or have an option to add the new action the the currently showing bar (in the "action" window, not "action #2"), rather than the first bar (or both options).
- Search in the key binding window by either the key combination or the action name. I'm thinking typing the name in a box, rather than selecting it from a series of menus.
- Either just disable automatically compass targetting the quest giver when a quest is completed, or add an option to do this.
- It would save time or action bar space (for me, at least) to be able to add HP/focus/etc. boosts in the crafting window, for example beside where the item to craft is chosen, instead of to the stanza (although adding them in the stanza is more like other skills in Ryzom).
- Enable chat logging to be automatically toggled on when logging in. I like to be able to scroll back further than the chat window allows sometimes, and I don't always remember to turn this on when I log in. As well, humorous chat doesn't usually happen when I expect it to.
- Allow buying multiple teleport pacts at once, like other sold items.

Assignable icons for actions would be very nice. Allowing use of the icons used in macros would be semi-useful to me. Being able to choose the icon of one of the stanzas used in the action would be more useful to me. Being able to do a combination of the two (for example the yellow splat from increase attack on top of an orange+dark orange striped square) would be the most useful to me.Finally, I find the action bar icons to be lacking in terms of diversity. I usually have a number of icons on any given bar that are only distinguishable due to the three or four letters it shows from the name. It would be extremely helpful to have larger number of assignable icons for our stanzas so that we can more easily differentiate between them at a glance.

I've wished for this a number of times. To avoid selecting text when fighting, perhaps this could be disabled if the chat window is locked.Select and Copy to clipboard from the chat windows! It's a pain to have to pull up my log file to simply copy and paste to a browser.

While the window closing automatically is useful when I'm only going to do one mission, I would much rather have to close the window myself. - Mission window closes every time you pick up a mission. And if you want to take a few of them, you have to repeat clicking and scrolling up and down again. Need a fix, so it remains open until closed manually.
