Small suggestion thread

1. crafting favorite changing between servers might be redundant.

2. double clicking the icon to craft also seems redundant.

3. way to arrange favorite tab.

I'd like if it worked like in the old one where hovering over it showed the recipe, then clicking once on the item icon crafted it.

First of all, I want to start by saying that this is probably going to be the best QoL update we have ever received. I have been enjoying every bit of the beta, I can't express enough how happy I am with all the changes. Thanks a lot Klei!

My first suggestion is regarding the "double-click" crafting. After all this time of single-click crafting, highlighting an item by clicking it, and clicking once more to craft it not only feels weird, but also not right. Also I don't know if it was just my lack of clicking skills, but I couldn't auto-craft anything even though I'm sure I double-clicked fast enough.

My second suggestion is regarding Wolfgang. Thanks for making him able to self-click to lift. Another thing I have noticed is that he can't unequip his dumbbells from his handslot without dragging the item to an empty inventory slot or without swapping items. I would very much appreciate a keybind to unequipping directly from the handslot, like left CTRL+right-click or even a simple right-click. Also allow me to say that this is coming from a person who will be playing this new Wolfgang a lot in the future. Thanks a lot for using our feedbacks!

I want this one so bad. And I want to be able to set it to a single button because I would like to set that to my Mouse 4.

1) Favorites arent't changing between servers, they are global. The pined items change and I can totally understand why. In my megabase with wanda I need bundlingwraps and night armor, in an early world I don't have bundingwraps and need a lotsuit or darksword if I don't play wanda. So I think the global favorits and the not global pins are actually not and compromise. 

2) Even if would also prefere to craft with a single click: The problem ist how will you select an item then? Selecting it is one click, crafting is the second click. Selecting is needed in this new GUI for skins, favorits and pinning items.

right click probably.

I made a post in suggestions, but I'll post here as well: I think it would be very beneficial for DST to add support for custom hints.

 

Edit: I moved it to the beta branch thread

hovering the mouse over it should be enough, i believe

[PunkShark]

Able to do tasks while the UI is open. That's all i want.

EDIT: That's not all i want. i lied.
Having the UI open won't pause the game, while also having auto pause on at the same time. its a bit weird and i forget to press the pause button without it on. make it customizable

Prototyper stations when clicked on should show all prototypable recipes from that station.

So if i click on a science machine, it will show all recipes from it. So i can click on a shovel and backpack on the same page instead of navigating menus.

combine cooking tab and food tab, combine weapons tab and armor tab, combine chest tab with structure tab, and combine the summer and winter tab and maybe spring tab if that doesn't make it too over bloated. After this my main problems will be done with

A dedicated trading HUD/Filter would be cool since it doesn't really fit into a crafting menu.

Well in the chest tab there are way more items than structures but the rest I agree with.

Would be nice if the Cookbook gets an Search Bar too. Especially when playing with mods that add extra foods.

Mass crafting is cumbersome with the new UI. I want to be able to just hold the second click on the grid as before instead of moving my mouse down to the build button.

[SecretPizzaMan]

I've noticed from OrangE video that the ancient guardian's arena looks larger then before, if this is true will the new arena be retrofitted into old worlds?

I also wonder how the new crafting menu will feel in console, will there be a option to increase scrolling speed in the menu?

Also if they're going through all the trouble of remaking the entire UI may as well let you click on ingredients (such as rope and boards) in the recipe to make them.
