Now that the Detective's Notes have been passed by the community survey, it's time to finish touching them up and add any features that were missing from the first implementation. I've done enough work on it now that I can show everyone where it's currently at, and you can all chime in and let me know what you think.

The biggest addition will be a witness evidence version of the notebook, shown in the following screen shot. It only displays suspects that have not been ruled out, so you can focus on going after your important targets. In the screen shot example if we were to ask Rashad Morcos about Wagdy Mikhail, then Rashad would then be crossed off Wagdy's list. I ultimately intend to include townie hints in this notebook.

The second picture I have shows the evidence list being listed on the suspect description page. The aim behind this is to allow players to read the suspect's description to see if they have the potential to match any of the evidence - therefore saving diligent Sleuths an alibi question on particular cases.

In the same vein of question saving, I'm currently thinking about including the option to rule out individual pieces of evidence. This might be handy for example if one deduces a piece of evidence must match an innocent suspect. Rather than using a question to check the evidence against the innocent suspect you'll instead be able to strike it out of the notes yourself to allow for easier reading.

Please do let me know what you think, and like before I'll post more screen shots as the development and consultation process continues.

I love the counter! I have an irrational fear of counting names or boxes in the D notes wrong and misjudging if I have all my suspects yet.

I'm sorry to say that whilst the work has been largely completed, it won't be ready for release for at least a fortnight - probably a little longer than that truth be told.

Well, any date is better than no date at all. :) I'm looking forward to the completion of the changes.
