20070623 Better Inventory

By: Bruce Torbaron 19:19, 23 June 2007 (BST)

Suggest-Scope: Survivors

Suggest-Type: Minor inventory change.

Suggest-Description:

Are you guys tired of cluttered inventory?? I know i sure am... I think that...instead of just putting your newest items in the bottom of your inventory, all your items should stick together in groups. For example:

Instead of:

"You are carrying: A pistol (3,) a NT syringe, a FAK, a Pistol Clip, a Fire Axe, a Spraycan, a Pistol (1), a Shotgun (2), a fuel can, a radio (26.26), a shotgun shell, a fuel can, a FAK, a knife, a Pistol Clip, a Flak Jacket, a Shotgun Shell, a FAK, a DNA extractor, a shotgun shell, a mobile phone, and a Pistol Cilp"

Instead of that garglemesh, your inventory would be organized by what type of item it is (military / science / weapon / Miscellanious *spelling?*)

It would be something like:

"You are carrying: A Pistol (3), A Pistol (1), A pistol Clip, a Pistol Clip, A Pistol Clip, A Shotgun (2), a Shotgun Shell, a Shotgun Shell, A Fire Axe, a Knife, a Flak jacket, a FAK, a FAK, a FAK, a NT Syringe, a DNA Extractor, a Fuel Can, a Fuel Can, a Radio (26.26), a Mobile Phone, a Spraycan."

Notice how they are grouped into groups, with Military / Attack items 1st, then Scientific items 2nd, then Miscellanious *spelling?* items last. This could be refined and fixed up more, i just want to see what you guys think of the core idea.

Keep Votes

1. Author Keep - I think it would eb a good addition to multi-taskers. --Bruce Torbaron 19:19, 23 June 2007 (BST)
2. Keep -Because 1: firefox does not actually do this by itself, 2: this would SO be a big deal, I have to look through my invetory EVERY SINGLE TIME my last pistol runs out of ammo, and 3: just to vote against DG, that welcome thing does NOT tell you how to use templates. I checked. Multiple times.--AlexanderRM 22:46, 23 June 2007 (BST)
3. Keep Good core Idea. Don't blame poor old duke for the welcome newbie thing not telling you stuff, he didn't make it, y'know?--Seventythree 23:37, 23 June 2007 (BST)
4. Keep One: Not everyone uses Firefox, and Internet Explorer does not "suck, and it is not a dupe, those dupes are INVALID, as DUPE is for suggestions that are duplicates of OTHER SUGGESTIONS, not OUTSIDE PROGRAMS. Meaning this one is now in the positive, at this point I believe (if no one else votes Spam) enough to be Peer Reviewed. Nalikill 17:12, 24 June 2007 (BST)
5. Keep This implementation requires fewer IP hits, thus saving players' time and the server's bandwidth. Dathgale 20:25, 24 June 2007 (BST)
6. keep - I know this is a Dupe but, I like it. Not everyone has firefox and everything should be organized without it to some degree. Right now, without the firefox download, everthing ends up jumbled together and thats just a pain. --Sonofagun18 07:52, 25 June 2007 (BST)

Kill Votes

Spam / Dupe Votes

1. Dupe/Spam - Spam, because A) not that big a deal B) Firefox already does it. IE sucks so switch. Dupe because there are tons of these that have been put up. One is this, and while they may be different, I'm sure there is one just like yours somewhere..-- dǝǝɥs oʇ ɯɐds: sʎɐʍ1ɐ! 19:48, 23 June 2007 (BST)
2. Spam/dupe - there's plug for firefox that does it, it's not big deal and it was already suggested multible times. and learn how to use templates, have you ever read welcoming i placed on your talk page? --Duke Garland_T^{LCD SSZ} 20:26, 23 June 2007 (BST)
3. Spam/Dupe - Not a big deal; it takes maybe a second of real life time to look for what you need. It is also a Dupe as indicated by Suicidalangel. --Ryiis 23:47, 23 June 2007 (BST)

   • Note - Revised vote as per discussion page --Ryiis 04:48, 24 June 2007 (BST)

4. Dupe - I'll believe you when you say this is a dupe, because you lurk here more than me. However, this is not spam. The guy took a time to ponder, he's nont suggesting uber ninja zombies, neither is something completely useless. "IE sucks so change it" is not a good answer either (even tho i agree), because it has nothing to do with the game or the suggestion at all. Just quit being so offensive and spamming everything, specially newbie posts. ~m ^T! 00:21, 24 June 2007 (BST)

   RE - Guys........ Not everyone has or is willign to download Firefox, and you have to put a link to a suggestion that looks RELATIVLY like mine in order to "Dupe" it. --Bruce Torbaron 02:04, 24 June 2007 (BST)

   non-voter RE: removed, and whole section copied to discussion page if anyone wants to reply/discuss. armareum 03:09, 24 June 2007 (BST)

5. Dupe - Close enough to this one that allows you to do it manually -- boxy ^{T L ZS Nuts2U DA} 04:04, 24 June 2007 (BST)
6. Dupe For Reals This Time - Told you you'd see. Anyway on the talk page SA provided what I would say is an actual dupe link. This vote is a dupe of this in almost every way but most importantly the stacking.--karek 09:48, 24 June 2007 (BST)
7. Dupe - link now supplied to genuine dupe. armareum 16:26, 24 June 2007 (BST)
