Something that might be easier from a UI standpoint is all Specific Named resources could be highlighted in yellow. I.e. if it requires Duralloy Steel all Duralloys could have yellow names. I would think that would be easier for coding sake and reading sake... So yes when making Advanced Blaster Rifle Barrels you may have 3 steels yellowed, but much easier to find still.

i tend to keep everything bagged and just put the resources i'm going to use in my main inventory. that way all i see is what i'm using.



Go to exotic places,
meet interesting people,
and kill them.

I would like it if this feature were added...


Example: If i'm crafting a gun and it requires rhodium steel, if i click on the piece that requires rhodium, i'd like it to make all of my resources disappear and only show the rhodium. Kinda like the filter items check box does, just on a component level instead of gun level.


As it is, i'm looking through 11 different typs of steel to find the 1 stack of rhodium.
Thanks


Mook

While we are at it, my sister would like a cute little pink pony.

How about the other way around?


I have an item that requiers


- Doonium Steel


- Ferrus Metal


- Metal


This leaves me with a whole lot of items that get past my Filter...


Now if i fill some sweet copper into my Metal slow it should remove all Non-Ferrus metals from the list


Now i fill some nice steel into my Ferrus slot and it should only leave the Doonium steel in my list...

Very nice suggestion.. I think the 'yellow' highlight when you click the box is more realistic than having it filter out all others...


Let me bring it up to the devs, thanks

I don't know about you guys but I have 6 full packs hanging on the wall of my PA Hall that I work out of.



In the back room on the main floor of the Hall there is perfect space to have a station on one wall and your packs hanging behind you. I have all the packs open at once and resized so not only can I see the schematic, but can grab needed resources at will. You can stand right between your packs and your station and do your thing.


Now I have house space issues
