1. Remove the Name option from the radial menu for non-owners (not critical at all)


2. Double clicking the harvester opens the Operate Machinery window, especially since examine seems to have no purpose


3. Redesign the Operate Machinery window to include: (a) two cells for power and maintance allowing us to directly type in the amount of each we would like to have (not add) and (b) a button to pull all the contents of the hopper out and add them to inventory. This would put most of the functionality controls in one window.


4. Create/activate a slash command to allow an admin to pull all of the resources from the hopper and put into inventory.


5. Add an email option to theradial menuto email specific admins about harvester status (e.g. harvester out of power/maint, resource shifted out andhopper full).


6. Allow resource stacks removed from different harvesters to stack automatically in inventory.

Factories

1. Remove the Name option from the radial menu for non-owners (not critical at all)


2. Add an email option to theradial menuto email specific admins about factory status (e.g. factory out of power/maint, out of ingredient/component andproduction complete). For those of us that share factories and/or lot swap, this is most needed.


3. Increase the range at which we can access the options on the radial menu. This is a very fine line at which you can be between two equipment factories and use both radials. This would be nice for making runs of items that require sub-components, allowing easy transfer between factories.


4. Combine the input and output screens into one, allowing easy transfer of sub-components with in the same factory. Possibly add a button to move all output hopper contents into the ingredient hopper.


5. Create/activate a slash command to allow an admin to pull all of theitems from the ingredient/output hopper and put into inventory.

Thanks for your time.

I suggest reposting this in the Architect forum.

Those are excellent suggestions. I would love to see this implimented.

I have one addition to suggest: make the "set name" permanent unless changed. I hate having to rename all my harvesters every time I move them.

especially if said harvister is sitting smack in the middle of a HUGE strip mining operation pulling up thousands and thousands of units of resources. it's like finding a needle in a haystack. (or a bothan in the soap aisle in the store)

Use a macro

I don't think that would work for me for a couple reasons. One, it's selecting from the radial menu that's the real pain, not pasting in the new text, and two, I use /notepad to create a multi-line name for each harvester. I don't think either of these things could be macroed. I could be wrong though.

Great post

/agree

Cheers,

Sunjammer,

You can macro "set name" completely to a hotkey. I learned how to do this here. My hotkey names it, sets admins and opens the status window all at once.
