    I was going to say that this would also benefit for /list but since its quite easy to read, and you can also do /list <rank>, this suggestion only applies for /near.

    /near is terribly messy (example below from Arceuz's island yesterday) 2020-04-11_20.17.18.png
    Metal loves parkour I C (they didnt make that 4-block jump smh)

    There is, from what it looks like, no way in which the command sorts player ranks, distance from player, or even player names for that matter. I know this is an extreme example because of the nature of the DP day itself however it presents the problem in the best possible way (I do have a screenie of players on /warp easter during the DP the other day - community service to reduce lag - but its a pain to read).

    Support, they should make it just like /list where they only have to say the rank name once then display all the names in alphabetical order and have each rank separated, this would be much easier to read and better for crowded places like during the times of dp’s

    I think this would be a good addition to the server and not all that difficult to implement too. I agree with what monster said regarding a similar layout to /list or /online with ranks being split apart and then further arranged into alphabetical order.

    Only problem with this comes in that /near is handled by Essentials, not any of our own plugins. We could, however, disable the Essentials /near command, then replace it with our own /near command. It wouldn't take too long to write out (would mostly just be figuring out the best way to optimize it so it doesn't cause lag when people are spam using the command in large crowds).

    I would be interested in seeing this though, and would always be down to help get this added if it's approved ;)

    Thank you for both your support and I'm glad you see my view on this in a similar way! :)

    Ah I see. I'm not into technical things but it might just be easier to, in a way, replicate the fundamentals of /list and move them through to the new /near. I'm glad to hear your support, Red! :D

    If the format was easier, sure, but don’t remove /near.

    If this is accepted make sure to update /list too.

    Support, although not an essential addition this would be nice to have.

    /list is already sorted by rank.

    Support.

    It's not sorted by ranks, it's divided into ranks and sorted alphabetically.

    It starts with D400 then goes onto Skyblocker, then Skygod, king, knight, lord then titan. (all sorted alphabetically, not by ranks)

    Just do /who or /list (rank). For example /list Skygod and you'll only see the current skygods that are online on the server atm, same goes for every rank.

    Support, not fun having a messy /near ;< and it bothers my OCD eeeeeee

    It’s never bothered me or come to my attention much but I guess at busy islands it could be a pain. With that said though it’s not overly necessary so I’ll stick with neutral.
