Can it be made possible to select a character by its portrait, without moving the camera to this character? That would make it way easier to assign positions or gather a scattered party. The latter is quite a challenge sometimes, especially when your characters are on different floors. The camara stays mainly on the floor of the selected character, but you want it to be on the other floor, with the rest of the party (for instance).
Just (re)grouping the party doesn't work most of the times. Ursa Major never joins this way, he always needs a manual pointed out route.
Single click portrait: select character.
Double click portrait: select and center character.
