Hello devs, Purple here, Co-lead of the CWU, I come to beg you for some QOL additions to GOI to help make the CWU's life considerably easier, a few ideas I have to pitch. And yes, I realise this will take some time to code and such, so I appreciate it's no small ask:
Firstly, and most importantly - a data disc dispensing machine. We currently have six safes full of large bags full of data discs, organising them is impossible, and it's a nightmare trying to find one specific item no matter how hard we try to keep things organised. I ask for a machine to be made, which we can feed discs into, a simple interface is all that's required, just a search bar to allow us to search for a specific thing, say we want to find the disc for the item "Box of Screws" we simply type into the search bar, either the full name, or just "Screws" and it'll show up, just that disc and allow us to withdraw it, directly into our inventory, like the normal pick-up dispenser does. As an added bonus if it isn't too much work, have certain things locked somehow to the CWU management card such as Combine batteries, though if that's too much work it's fine just not doing that.
Secondly, adding similar search bars to the city stock option on the GOI terminal and the bioprocess option on the Fabricators in addition to regular pages, would be incredibly helpful, as trying to go through 300+ pages of city stock looking for a single item is quite annoying, and for the fabricator, it would make things somewhat faster, though it's again not needed so much on that.
While I'm here on the suggestions, I'll just throw in some other minor requests that have been picked up by the CWU faction:
As you probably know, removing batteries from the machines can be irritating, having to do it at a specific angle, if this could be rectified to make it easier that would be amazing.
Charging batteries is a needlessly time consuming task, if you could make it so we can use stacked items to charge a battery by the amount of the stack, it would speed things up considerably, making charging batteries less of a chore.
Increasing the stack size of resin and bio-paste from 4 to 8 would also make storage and use of those materials much easier, as we often have to make them in large numbers, this would make inventory space less of an issue when doing various tasks.
Making it so Fabricator products automatically stack when removing them from the fabricators would also be a good thing, again, don't know how possible this is, but it's a small QOL thing that would make everyone's job easier.
If you need any further details or anything, please shoot me a message either here or on discord. _purpleknight
