Have job titles show up under players with ALT hover-over

That's just it, there is a skill to it. And cyborgs can see from the get go who's who. Making it a feature just for them.

This is why I suggest a pop out window. Cause tell me.. how long will it take for someone to ask: "Why do I have to press alt to see their titles too? Why can I not have it on at all times?" Cause.. why press alt to see their job titles anyway? Why not just have a toggle to see names, pronouns and job title whenever. Why bother pressing a button to see it? Why not toggle it with a button?

The answer is simple. "There is a non interaction"

And yes people alt spam click alot, but here's the thing. They still need to time to stop and read those examines.
See someone supicious? Alt click to examine.. but ooh no you can't since they ran off. But if you did alt you would see "UNKNOWN" or "NAME, NO ID"

Now would I be fine with a togglable abillity? No.. since at that point we basically have a "HUD glasses" feature right on the game screen.

This is why I propose the "popout window" insted. And have what is suggested here as a special "HUD glasses" feature.
"But newbees need to see everyone from the get go who they are."

Yea I get that, but I'd be honest to say this... this is a social deduction game and people alt click spamming everyone means they chose an information overload to scroll through. But in my opinion? If we just make it a pop out window or side tab all together that can only examine 1 person at a time.. suddenly we are both giving newbees what they need and stopping EXAMINE SPAM cause now examining takes effort for one person...
Heck as a doctor with MED-HUD. You can now safely read the medical report on your glasses without the radio guy shouting it away in the chatlog.

But if you really want this... I'd say remove even the alt requirement and just have it be a togglable abillity. No need to hold alt. Just turn it on or off.
Cause if we are going for full QoL, why even bother showing stuff by holding a button? Why not show it at all times? Now you won't accidentally alt click someone, now you can always see "Mr. Unknown" in the crowd and beat on him.
