Short question about ship designer

Post by OpT1mUs »

The way it's set up , the arrows that add/remove components use components on he left list as a "marker" of what is getting added/removed. Is there a way to use the right list instead?

For instance if I have 1 Thruster on the ship already, I want to select it on ship and use arrows to add more. The way it is now, I have to find the Thruster on the bigger, left list to be able to add more. It feels very unintuitive.

no, you cannot make such a change - you have to use the left list to add items to your ship.

ps: it's easy to find the right item on the big left list: you can sort the list by size, typer or alphabetically.

I've always felt the same way. Since I have a little free time now I'll see what I can do about it.

This has now been implemented and will be in the next version of the Bacon mod.
