Item request stack display

Post by Cronie »

In the inventory request confirmation dialog, please show the number of stacks somewhere instead of just a raw number. There could be an option in settings to "request items by stacks" or there could just be a conversion on the screen that shows how many stacks the number requested is equivalent to.

Thank you for all the hard work

The default value is already the stack size,
so just write say "10*" before that and you'll get 10 stacks.

Take a picture of what you mean. I think you mean to put a "0" AFTER the number, but this would obviously only work with multiples of 10

It's not limited to multiples of ten!
