I just recently joined the 8 NPC club, and I have to say that, having paid an incredible amount of energy (refills, cubes, NPC farming, Tris, etc) I'm sorely disappointed. And I don't need to be, because the solution is simple, or so it seems. Please, Dan, Please oh please, allow the NPC tab to display 8 at a time. Maybe you can give NPCs and PVP two seperate subtabs, like the Trade tab has. But please, it's driving me bonkers.

Or at the very least set it up to work like the Artifacts and Ship Modules.

its been mentioned before, but having the same type of page for the npc as the pc bt would also be a good solution, there could be 4 to a page right now with the current max.

no. it wouldn't. All 8 need to appear on the same page so NPC flowing can go without the constant scrolling or paging down.

That might work too.

Yes, it would, the pc bt has the same style of sorting tabs as planets and would let you get what you're asking for or accepting from the other posts. The prototype is also already there and would be easy to implement.

Love this idea.
Really is annoying having to scroll so much.
Like we dont get enough of that while going trough artifacts for planets, NPC's and PVP...

Top-loading the NPCs seems to be the easiest fix. You scroll once to see what's on the bottom and hit it if it's worth it. Otherwise, start at the top and scroll a lot less.

Hopefully someone with Dan's ear will pass this along.

But thats not easier, . Scrolling down is easier than having to switch page to find your newest NPC's. And once you've found 4 or 5 elite shareable NPC's constantly having to change page to get to the ones which aren't elites would get very annoying.

If the slider must stay, then top loading is the only way to go, IMNSHO.

you click the sort tab and suddenly elites are on the second page.
