Zacchary.6183 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Place the crafting categories in the production tab at workstations to the minimized by default. That way, the player can sift through 20 recipes instead of 1200. Yes? No? Discuss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Yes please!People have been asking for this pretty much since the game came out and I'm sure I'm not the only one who would still like to see it happen. I almost always start a crafting session by minimising all the tabs, or at least all the ones above the section I'm using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zacchary.6183 Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 I have recently been doing it too. The search function in game is still in need of work. :anguished: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaaba.5672 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I always minimize my way down the list instead of scrolling. Would looooove for it to be the default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starhunter.6015 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Agreed. Having each category expanded already when you go to craft is a pain searching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tairneanach.8427 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I'd even settle for a "minimise all" option hidden behind the options cog. Anything to make things a bit more clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryelis.3508 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 This! And if you collapse or expand as you are working and move to a different tab on the crafting panel - it stays that way when you return to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaaba.5672 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Just crafted something and noticed another thing I do because it's such a clunky interface. When I want to refine something, I click one of the first recipes and then expand it to get to a material to refine - then once the list has moved focus down there, I choose what I really wanted to refine in the first place. I mean, it works, but that shouldn't be the fastest way to get to an area in your crafting menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor.9872 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I've been wanting this for soooooooo long. Yes please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaaba.5672 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Hey, can I add another thing to this request? I'd love to have 'refine' separated out into 'refine materials' and 'refine intermediates'. I mean, that's a terrible name, but I'd love to have a separate category for refining my wood into planks and refining my planks into dowels, etc. Of course, I've never misclicked. I would never be that clumsy, but I bet it would help other people. whistles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zacchary.6183 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Yeah but I passed the editing window. Hopefully if a dev reads this they can figure something out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Be nice to be able to have the usual toggles: Collapse AllOpen AllRemember last Sort by level->name (current default) vs sort by nameFavorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronos.6532 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Better idea. Make it so you can right-click add recipes to your favourites to be listed at the top, or in their own category in addition to the ones they're already in.Make it so the crafting station actually remembers your filters, e.g. "Have Materials" or "Gain Experience".

RoyHarmon.5398 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I'm almost always going for the "Refinement" category, anyway, and it's most of the way down the list. I know it's probably easier to just type in the search bar, but that would mean shifting from mouse to keyboard. For most folks, that may be trivial, but my chair sits so much lower than my desk that I can't see the tops of the keys. I have to use both hands to type that way, so now I've fully abandoned the mouse and probably made at least one dog move off my left arm (I use a G600 so I can play most of the game with just mouse hotkeys and pet my dogs while I play). So, yeah, it would be nice if I could just click on the minimized category of interest instead of going to all that trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrilana.1396 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 It would be useful. I've just settled on using the search bar when trying to narrow down the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
