Unique maps in map tab highlighting / Alternate way to highlight items (position or name)

Open OriginalThing opened this issue 2 months ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I get frustrated when someone is trading for a unique map from my map tab because the game doesn't highlight which unique map I'm supposed to be trading if I could quickly enter the name of the map into the search box then the game will jump to and highlight the tab with the map I am looking for.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Modifier key + click on globe will search by name rather than position This will leave the current position functionality intact but adds another option and it also allows the user to choose on the fly which search method they want to use. I'm leaning towards shift as my preference for the modifier key to be used as I'm used to pressing that key the most. Control, I can foresee some people having issues with as they may hold it down in anticipation to move items to their inventory, where they wanted to search by position but instead search by name. Alt is okay but a less commonly used key.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Search by both name AND position This doesn't work for the map tab as anything other than the name doesn't highlight the correct tab to go to.

  • Search by name for all for items The game highlights the item anyway even for copied whispers so perhaps Lurker's position search is redundant, though once in the actual unique map tab I could use the position search to find the exact map they asked for (though most of the time people don't mind which one they just want any)

  • Search by name for only for unique maps This could work but could be confusing having different behaviors for different items and perhaps there are other situations where people want to search by name rather than position.

  • Subsequent clicks cycle between the two modes When you click the globe it could cycle between the two modes. So first click could search by position and second click could search by name, third click would go back to position search, etc. This could work but which ever is second requires two clicks to get to, and if clicked without the stash open then it would skip an option.

  • Config Option Have an option in the settings to chose which search method to use. Not super flexible but would provide a way to choose which search mode they prefer.

Additional context Clicking the globe with a single unique map trade doesn't highlight the correct unique map tab image Clicking the globe with a bulk trade takes you right to the correct unique map tab image Combining both name and position doesn't work image
