shortcut suggestions.

1.For simplicity, maybe we should have the grass,twigs or berries also drop when we dig them up because it's just lost resources.Or have a left and right click function(from another thread.) so we can right click to harvest and left click to dig.

2.When you search for fireflies,you can have a torch out and if you have a bug net within your invetory it will automatically take it out to catch the firefly and go back to the torch after the animation is complete.Of course we can always camp near the fireflies during the night but it's a lot of hassle.

3.Holding down shift, then clicking on an item will collect all items in a small radius.I want really emphasize on this function.It's a lot of clicking saved.

4.Number keys for the small bar next to the equipment slots would be helpful for fast switching.

5.shift clicking on the fire Automatically put the required amount of fuel to make the fire at it's highest light source or at least close.

6. Automatically equipping a log suit if the one currently using breaks and the player has another one on hand.

7.holding shift and right clicking a edible substance will eat the required amount for full or close to full hunger,Probably disable it for monster meat though because you might overdose and kill yourself or make it that it stops you from eating to many and killing yourself.

8.Shift clicking with food on the fire cooks all of it.

9.Shift clicking places all the food to fill up the slots in the crock pot.

10.Shift clicking with manure places maximum amount of manure in turbo farm or any other farm that holds more than one manure.Haven't tested others yet.

Random suggestion:

When is the crock pot going to be changed a little so it's more useful as the items it makes only stacks by one.Maybe special buffs.Stack but only in 3's? can no longer have fillers such as twigs or grass and other fillers so you can apply the stack idea.Of course you don't want a bunch of recipes maybe make it that there's only certain recipes and if you don't add in the right ones it becomes a mixed dish so it's unspecified.

11.shift right clicking an item in the inventory splits the stack.

12.Shift clicking with a stack of research-able items on either research machine research the whole stack.

that's all i can think of now but really i think D.S. needs a little less clicking in some situations it can get tiring.

If anyone else has ideas for shortcuts go ahead and post a comment :DDD

I will admit, the number of times I've accidentally dug-up or been forced to switch-out my shovel to perform one of these actions has made me think: there must be a better way...

2.When you search for fireflies,you can have a torch out and if you have a bug net within your invetory it will automatically take it out to catch the firefly and go back to the torch after the animation is complete.Of course we can always camp near the fireflies during the night but it's a lot of hassle.

Yeah, I've been following "Plan B" there because of the problem switching between torch and bug net. A second hand slot would help resolve this issue as well. Or another light source that doesn't require hands... like an old-time mining helmet. Hmmm. It could use candles made from beeswax and grass and a helmet made from gold ore (at least until there's iron ore...). Then you could "wear" a light source, and it would have a % like the beekeeper hat... running out as you wore it (say 2% per 5 seconds).

3.Holding down shift, then clicking on an item will collect all items in a small radius.I want really emphasize on this function.It's a lot of clicking saved.

4.Number keys for the small bar next to the equipment slots would be helpful for fast switching.

Keyboard commands will be coming... or that's what I heard.

6. Automatically equipping a log suit if the one currently using breaks and the player has another one on hand.

I gotta disagree with this suggestion. It makes life too easy for the player. It's a survival game after all and odds are you lost your log suit because you were being attacked. Strategically you should run and try putting on another one... if you have one. It happened to me once when dealing with werepigs and it was an exhilarating experience coming so close to death!

As for clicking too much... I don't know. I like cooking with clicks. Mmmm... boiled berries.

yeah now thinking about the log suit i'm turning down my own idea but still i want them to add in shift click collect all and digging up the plant and receiving the resources
