One of the biggest parts of Runescape is the social aspect, little additions like this would be fun, and people who roleplay would find it very useful. Though like Dsctatom said, a general option to just change your direction in place would be nice :o No such thing as too much

I am beyond perplexed by this thread.

For those few people OCD enough to care which direction they're facing(outside of interacting with actual game content), you can simply move away, then approach your partner in conversation from the direction they're facing. This results in the two avatars facing one another, without the constant "dance" circling mentioned in the OP.

As far as adding a facing functionality, I don't imagine it would be too difficult, but it also has no application other then this, since the game automatically faces the avatar properly with respect to any actual task they are undertaking.

Maybe they could simply add it to shift or control in combination with the arrow keys, so as not to add a disruptive and superfluous new interface, and hopefully avoid causing trouble for the vast majority of players who have no need whatsoever for this function.

I dunno - I just really don't see how this is a problem, but as long as it could be "solved" with no disruption to anyone else, I guess I don't really need to oppose it.

This is honestly a fabulous idea, aswell on social, as on Roleplaying aspect of the game!

Roleplayers are definately gonna be happy with an idea like this!

I support this through thick and thin for the honours of Roleplayers.

It takes two clicks to face your friend, the exact number of clicks it would take if there was a specific option to face your friend. For golem/ethereal/shark/divine sim/camo/gorajan/sentinel/trapper/farmer parts, use friend chat: {th trade}

Not really a good idea if you ask me!!
When skilling, say mining or smithing or woodcutting etc., once you start your avatar and talk, it means you stop doing what you are doing at that moment so it will be counter-productive and extremely annoying disrupting what you are doing at that moment.
Unless they also develop a toggle on / off option but to my knowledge that's something that will take this idea too far off gaming development.
