Title: Sub-categories When Trading
Post by: AssTron on January 31, 2011, 12:12:38 am

I know I hate scrolling past tons of the same weapon when in a shop, and I think a lot of people would agree that this could be a very beneficial modification.

To elaborate, what I'm suggesting is that all items of the same type, regardless of deterioration, would be grouped in a similar fashion to in the original fallout games.
for example, when a player begins trading with an NPC, he clicks on the weapon he wants. an FN-FAL for instance. this then shows him all of the FN-FALs available in the traders inventory and he can pick one.

I think that this would mitigate a lot of the frustration that people experience while trading, and would probably be quite simple to implement.
What do you all think?

Already suggested something like this before

And before people say "if you know what you want, it's easy"

Ok, let's say this NPC might have a gun you want, it might be in the bottom

How do you get there?

Cuz I don't feel like giving him stuff just to reset timer, which is ridiculous

As i stated before. Best would be search input field where u can write something like *rifle* and you would see only items which name contains string "rifle".

You do realize that these filters are in the normal interface aswell?

Fallout Tactics, anyone? Fallout Tactics uses much better bartering filters.
