PLAYER TAB LIST
Live tab header, footer, status tags, and rank-aware sorting for online players.
Update Speed: Live refresh (about every second)
Main Purpose: Better online visibility, status context, and sorted player list
What It Does
Player Tab List upgrades the default tab panel with server info, status indicators, and cleaner ordering.
It keeps your tab view current while you play, including ping, online count, and vote-party status lines.
Header And Footer Experience
| Section | What Players See |
|---|---|
| Header | Animated Echelon branding line with rotating gradient styling |
| Footer | Ping, online player count, server time, and vote-party progress/status |
Name Display Behavior
- Staff role tags are shown with priority labels like Manager, Moderator, or Guide.
- Echelar tiers show tier tags for ranked players.
- Top Donator tag is supported when active.
- AFK players show an
[AFK]marker prefix. - If you have a nickname set, tab uses nickname display instead of plain username.
Sort Order
Tab sorting prioritizes staff and special roles first, then rank tiers, then regular players.
This makes moderation and high-value status tags easier to spot quickly in crowded sessions.
