In multiplayer rooms, there could a notification that the host is in the Song Select screen. Maybe if "[Selecting Song]" appeared next to the host's name or text appears above the song panel saying "Selecting Songs".

Yesssss. I've been thinking about something like this for a while but kept forgetting about it. :D

This would be extremely helpful. I've had people trying to talk to me, but I couldn't talk to them because I was selecting the next song.

Also, it would be nice if this was shown on the menu when choosing a multiplayer room. I've often ran into rooms with a song that I have only to have the song suddenly change on me right as I get in.

F8?

It'd definitely help if something like this were to be here, since now users would actually know why there was a long wait for many indecisive hosts. ;)

Low priority I believe, but why not.

I like it.

Or add this notification or make sure that the multiplayer chat is always open during song selection.

Either one would be a good solution imo.

Having multiplayer chat open can be a problem, as it doesn't allow people to use the search feature in map selection.

Now i think of it your right, but isnt there a way to work around that? like clicking the part of the chat to chat there and clicking the part of the song list to use the search.

I also agree with this, preferably the first post but any idea here
seems good to me.

I agree too. Sometimes it's very hard to tell if host is just afk and this uses playtime alot.

Definitely a good idea here!

Maybe, It will be helpful for someone.
Like... A is dling which is the song of room,
But if host changes song, It will be useless for this room :3
So, it's good imo anyway XD

I think its a good idea~
Especially when you join a room, start downloading, only to find there was no response as the host was selecting a new song v.v
Just a name change such as [Selecting] would be great
Saves him/her having to f8 back and forth when searching songs

I think it makes sense to have the indicator on the map button rather than the host.
Guy-kun
@Strager, true
What about making the map displayed to the room not visible or disabled/ non-downloadable while the host is in song selection
Or maybe just a greying of the map 'tab'

Not really an important feature, but it would be nice.
I hate it when i join a room only to have the host change songs.

+1 Support. I've always encountered hosts that you couldn't tell whether they are doing other things or they're having a hard time choosing a good map to play.

This also gets my full support. Of course, I have awesome patience, so it's not that bothersome to me. :p

Can't tell you how many times I've wondered if someone is AFK or just picking a beatmap.

maybe something that tells you if the map has already been played in that multiplayer match as well

Support, Whenever I wasn't a supporter it would kill me to realize that they were changing maps.
AceOfArrows
Absolutely supporting this.

On another note, I am an idiot who occasionally does not notice when Host has been passed to me (I'm sure I'm not the only one), and so when the top of the screen goes from "You are a player" to "You are the host," I figure it should flash a few times to catch the new host's attention.
