Title: Little fixboy tweak
Post by: avv on February 08, 2010, 05:58:35 pm
Pretty simple: you'd get to decide how many pieces of equipment you want to create. Less clicking required.

I like the idea. It would help when I am making multiple metal parts, gunpowders, or simple guns, or basic armors.

The thing that bugs me is repeatedly moving the mouse around in a big triangle (Item -> fix -> Done) for the same item.

To simplify the idea even further: Go back to the item ingredients page after displaying the success/failure message.

Or : when you craft an item, pip boy say "You succefuly make.." and when you push again the "fix" button you will be able to craft the same item another time (or not if you can't)
So you don't need to move the cursor just 5 click on fix to make 5 gunpowder. (or more if you want more)

I think it's more simple :p

anyway it has to be done, this way or another, those buttons are too small and clicking the 3 thing combo 10 times is just horrible

it's what they call the triangle of fate, get used to it  :-*

on a more serious note, it is a real pain in the ass, especially when crafting gunpowder from a brahmin.

Now, I'm no programmer, but I think this would require the way crafting works to be remade.

Helpful though it may be

Just make it it so that creating many same type of items fast doesn't require moving mouse too much or too many clicks. Right now it takes 3 clicks per additional item, and in 3 differend spots.

Still sounds like an engine issue in my, largely uninformed, opinion.

Would be nice if it sent you to a more convienient screen on completion of an item though.
