Provide more inspect details for anything else than selected zones?

Yes (community can ask for specific selection details)
No (for zones only)

When I want to find a specific item in big stockpile zones I'd like to select it by clicking on the corresponding entry in the list, so I can manually pick it up with my pawns (CE), activate haul urgently (allow tool), check how much time I have left before it starts to rot...
Right now the stockpile zone list tells you that the item is available, but it doesn't help you locating it.

Hm this is difficult:
What i do is summing up all stacks to 1 entry.

If you have 2 stacks (x3 and x75).
Which one is selected when clicking the entry.

Furthermore you need to know that the list you are watching at disappears as soon as you select another thing.
This will break your idea i think.

And what if clicking the entry selects all stacks of that item at the same time?
That would still help a lot with locating stuff.

This is an option yes. Better to draw an additional icon for selecting it or hit the line? Not sure yet how it is done, but i will find a way ^^

Cool, thanks a lot!  :) I don't think an additional icon or button is required, clicking on the line would be sufficient imo.

Hi,

i was asked to provide similiar informations for selected barrels and other things. I would like to know if the idea is welcome to extend this mod to show additional details for other selected things than zones.
I started a poll for that. Please vote:

Technicals details:
As I inherit the cores MainWindowTab_Inspect-class I have the possibility to change any inspect details for any selected thing.
As this is the only class to do so I would like to include additional details in this mod. So the naming should then become something like "ExtendedInspectData" rather than "ZoneInspectData", because it can handle many more stuff than zones.

I would gather the ideas of the community and provide frequent feedback about the planned implementation.
For sure if it is too complex i welcome any design ideas as well when requesting new details.

Regards Vari

I would suggest adding as much information as you realistically can (without making the UI huge, for example). You can add a selection for various items in the mod options dialog. Some people will want all the info there is while others would choose only certain parts of it.

Varisha

I see. If it is too much different things the option dialog would be good, i agree.

But before starting to add data for all selectable things and figure out on my own what makes sense or not I would like the community to tell me what would be a good extension.

It's not just a mod for me but for all of you, so help me with your ideas :D

OK, here's an obvious one: Base weapon stats. I would really like to see the accuracy, shots, damage, DPS, etc. at a glance when a weapon is selected. And if multiple are selected, why not show a simplified weapon stats list sorted by <player selected option>.

thanks for making it

Added a "feature request" table in the second post keeping it up to date regarding details and implementation status
