site finder layer search
« on: April 15, 2010, 09:38:38 am »

i think with the new place in the site finder we could add something like a "layer search"
the one we already got would be the flux, then there is sand also quite important for sites

also some people prefere to embark on sediment layers, others want exact extrusive layers, or just an exact stone like obsidian or granite

so add sand as a default option and also 3 fields in which you can either chose a whole layer or an exact layer stone to find

An option to search for sand and sediment layers would be really welcome - along with the already much-demanded option to cycle through search results.
