Move logistics slots in character GUI

Post by immibis »

Currently, the character's logistics slots are placed between the inventory and the crafting list. This is an annoying place to put it, because it messes up your muscle memory the first time you research character logistics slots, and because you now have to move the mouse farther to craft things. Also, it makes the character GUI wider than the default window size, at least on my computer.

Maybe it should be underneath the inventory and crafting panels - this layout:

I don't like your mock up. But I agree the charactor GUI needs some work. What if instead of adding more stuff to the current window we ditch the logistics panel entirely. And place it in a tab you can switch between. I can make a mock up if you don't understand.

I did warn you it was horrible. I've replaced it with a simple drawing now. A tab would work just as well as putting it at the bottom.

I like the new layout proposition.

A new tab system is possible too, but keeping all inventory related things in one window is the way to go in my eyes.

The problem is, that most monitors limit the gui vertically, not horizontally.
