Levers : displaying what they are linked to
« on: August 26, 2006, 06:20:00 am »

Befor posting a made a quick research and found that that post was not too far from my idea (but not exactly the same): http://www.bay12games.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=5&t=000074

Maybe I have missed something, but ti seems to me that for now, we can't know what a lever is linked to. That would be very handy to view list of objects it is linked when you "q" at it (It task you have the list of objects it is linked to, the cursor would go on it when on is highlighted...)

I agree; it's really frustrating when you're trying to link up floodgates in sequence and you don't know which are linked to what...

The ability to unlink a lever would also be nice.

Well, you could remove the lever ... but if you have multiple objects connected to it then that might not be a viable option.

I try to keep my levers to a minimum to prevent mishaps from a mis-pull.
