Zarquan Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 For those who don't know, the material view on the right is a very useful tool. If you click on a material repeatedly, it will will move the camera to every instance of the material that exists. This is an amazingly useful tool, as it lets me find things like eggs where they shouldn't be and which storage container things are in. However, the usefulness of this interface is significantly weakened by the fact that you can't easily cycle through all the resources. On a 1080p display, if you have all the sub-displays closed and you open critter eggs and try to start cycling through the eggs, the details of the egg cover up the thing you want to click on. This makes it a puzzle as to which menus you need to open to get the critter egg in question below the details. I think the material details should be movable so that we can move it out of the way when we want to do things with the right hand materials view. Or, at the very least, it should move out of the way when I want to cycle through my resources.

ONIfreak Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 All windows should be movable as well as opening properties of containers should be separated so you can open multiple instances. This would help in many aspects of game.

DarkMaster13 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 The material view needs some work in general. It should have a background filter so it's easier to read and not be counted as part of the main display screen for limiting scrolling and determining where the center of the screen is when zooming to something.
