Help to not sell wood
« on: October 13, 2010, 10:23:19 am »

Simple interface suggestion.
When trading with elves it's too easy to skip something wooden.
There should be either warning like "Are you sure you want to sell wooden trade to the elves?" or simple option "Hide wooden trades".
Or at least exclamation mark near the dangerous trades.

Personally I always mistake myself with giant cave spider stuff... the names are cut off in the small space, and it can be either chitin or silk. Silk is ok while chitin isn't.

I lend my support to this suggestion. When you've got 30+ screens of things to sell, or loads of things in barrels, it's easy to accidentally click on the wrong thing.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.
Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.
