Filter Crafting Menu

Post by Baratock »

The idea came in my Mind when I started a new Map with my little brother to show him the game.
A menu to disable enties from the crafting menu that they dont appear in the crafting Menu would be handy.

The general use of this is to disable "old" crafting recipes like wood chest, wooden power poles or all the burnerstuff.

I don't see a problem? It's not like you have hundreds of things to scroll through, or anything to scroll at all for that matter. So it would just be "tidying" the crafting menu. With this feature it would encourage people to put hundreds of items in and then you WOULD have stuff to scroll through, creating a very clunky interface.

Was there a specific reason you wanted to do this, some problem to solve? Start with that.

I think filtering (=searching) is in general a good idea, but not only for that purpose. That is too less functionality. For your luck there are some ideas that go into that direction. ;)
