Title: Awareness and list of the items on the ground
Post by: lapatmester on June 20, 2010, 11:12:26 am
It's a bit annoying when plenty of items are on the same hex and you want know what they are.
With awareness you you should see a list of the items on the hex and the quantity of them. It would be very helpful and useful.
Of course you should be able to disable this feature with a hotkey or command (different from the actual awareness enable/disable command).


I was thinking a bit:
The item list can be huge and don't know witch solution would be better:

As you know, when you hold down CTRL and click on a hex then the message box shows informations about that (distance, direction). In addition it could show the items too.

And how should the list work?
Example: You drop on the ground 20 pieces of Stimpak, a Leather Jacket, an Assault Rifle, again a Leather Jacket and finaly 15 Stimpak. Then you see the following list:

Reply with your ideas about my suggestion!

I see no point making this to awareness only. Other wise, its cool.

Classy idea, it would be awesome to know how much ammo lies on the ground.

It would be awesome if we could store items in actual lockers and chests and not on the ground...

  • Without Awareness: See only the list of items
  • With Awareness: See the list and the quantity of each item

Happy???  ;D

Actually I'm not... The awareness is fine, I don't see why let's say an alt who has totaly no need for Awareness all of a sudden needs to waste a perk to save 1 minute of the players retarded life... or maybe not-so-retarded. I'm totaly against that awareness needs this addition, it should be normal, without any perks/skills.

Lockers fill up pretty quickly, therefore has quite limited ammo, making most of the ammo still lying on the ground.


EDIT: Wikipedia explains what does awareness means'' Awareness is the state or ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects or sensory patterns.''
It doesn't say anything about seeing objects on the ground and determining how much objects are on the ground.

well, you can hardly be able to know how many objects there are in a jumble of items without being aware of it.
