Added manage friends window and friend categories.
Aside from being a social action, adding friends provides additional controls over the [[permissions]] and management of some structures and vehicles, such as on [[house]] writs and [[boat]]s and also allows both parties to see log-in and log-off messages.

== Usage ==To '''add''' another [[avatar]], or player as a friend, right click on their model and select '''Friend''' > '''Add'''. Once the recipient accepts the invite a friendship has been formed. It's also possible to add friends by typing "<tt>/addfriend playername" </tt> into the chat box. You may specify a friend category with <tt>/addfriend playername category</tt>.
To '''view''' a list of all friends, select the '''Friends''' tab from the event box. The friends tab displays a list of all friends, across all servers, and their current status.
* Right clicking on the name also allows a private chat to be stated.
* It is also possible to hide players from the list who have been inactive for more than a year. To enable this enter the main game options screen and check ''Hide inactive players from friendlist''.
== Friend Categories ==
:;Trusted: This category is for people you trust. People in this category are automatically given permissions for things like looting of your corpse.
:;Friends: Friends would be anyone you work and play closely with, but do not wish to give trusted access to.
:;Contacts: A category for people that you may not know very well or would not consider a friend.
:;Other: Anything else.
== Manage Friends ==

In addition to adding and removing friends as described above, you may also use the manage friends window. This also allows you to move friends into one of the various categories. Open your [[character window]] with {{key|C}} by default. '''Right-click''' the '''body''' or '''hand''' in the lower corners of the window and select '''Manage > Friends''' from the context menu. To change a category, simply check the new category for a friend and click '''Update Friends'''. To remove, click the '''Remove''' button in that person's row. To add a friend, scroll down to the bottom of the window and use the fields provided, inputting the person's name, selecting a category, and clicking '''Send Request'''.
== Messages ==
