simple qol changes for bulk stuff

[Propheteer 7,139]

1.allow dragging from crate/bsb in wagon directly into pile

2.allow dragging actual mass quantities, e.x. 300 ore from one crate into another crate without having to shift drag and hit the button 100 times, or one drag from a bsb to a smelter to put 100 ore in

 

both very simple changes

[MrGARY 12,421]

Been meaning to suggest this for ages.

 

Anything to speed up dragging and moving items around in the UI is definitely needed.

has nothing to do with what im suggesting and isn't even remotely close to a proper substitute.

implying you would need to put something from a crate into a pile, implying that you need to shift all of your bulk mats from a crate to a bsb, implying that you would need to move items in one crate to a different crate      ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Didn't they disable this? I get "You can only drop the large crate" if I try to drag it into another container.

 

edit: Apparently you can still drag crates from one vehicle to another.

Accidentally voted "no to both", but of course YES to both!

 

+1

 

Although this recent awesome feature of dragging loaded containers and stuff between vehicles is already very helpful.

If 2is awesomely overpowered then let we enjoy a timer on that. Mouse and wrist killing would be avoided anyway.

I'd prefer no timer.  It'd be limited to 100 max moved anyway, which is fine as a qol improvement and doesn't need a nerf to "balance" qol

[Stanlee 3,434]

2's a little dangerous as item movements that aren't limited to 100 items can disconnect a whole server once you start getting to the thousands.

 

Not that, uh, I'd know that.

 

swiftly moving on, if there's something to get around that, they're both nice ideas. Like the 100 cap remaining. Everyone's wrists would be thankful.

Shouldn't cause any issue when dragging between bulk containers, there's no point in processing each item individually.
