World Add Sort By Options To The Trade Market And World Selector [139 Supporters, 97% Approval Rate]

The Trade Market and World Selector are very important aspects of the game, but sometimes they can be frustrating and inconvenient to use. That's why I want to suggest adding sorting options to these, massively improving gameplay and quality of life.

1. World Selector

Two buttons would be added to the compass menu. The first would control the sorting type, and the other would allow you to switch between ascending and descending order.

Sorting types:

• Default
• Uptime
• Player Count
• Number
• Number of Friends Online
• Number of Guild Mates Online

In all cases, the restarting worlds would be shuffled to the end of the lists. If the server can handle it, selection would be preserved upon logging out.

2. Trade Market

Two buttons would be added to the search results menu, between the arrows and the item revealing icon. The first would control the sorting type, and the other would allow you to switch between ascending and descending order.

Items would be broken down into several categories, and each category would have its own sorting types. If the search results have items from two different categories, the only sorting option present would be price. (Although this isn't a part of the suggestion, these types could be added as search options to prevent collisions.)

ID- and tierless items (scrap, scrolls, keys, runes, etc.):

• Price
• Amount
• Amount/Price (may be a bit redundant)

Powders:

• Price
• Amount
• Tier and Price
• Tier and Amount

Tier includes sorting by Elements. This means that e.g Fire Powder I's are listed first, then Fire Powder II's, ..., then Thunder Powder I's, etc.

Horses:

• Price
• Tier (colour first, then level)
• Price and Tier

Materials:

• Price
• Amount
• Amount/Price (may be a bit redundant)
• Tier and Price
• Tier and Amount

Tools:

• Price
• Tier
• Tier and Price

Ingredients:

• Price
• Amount
• Amount/Price (may be a bit redundant)
• Custom ID Option

The Custom ID Option means that if you put an ID into the "search by" options, that ID would appear in the sorting types list too, and you could sort the results by that (in the case of ingredients, this sorting would go by the base value of the ID). E.g. I wanted a jump height ingredient for alchemism: I search for "Alchemism", "Ingredient" and "Jump Height", then sort the results by jump height, and now I can easily see what my options are.

ID-able items and crafteds:

• Price
• Custom ID Option
• Custom ID Option and Price

The Custom ID Option works the same as with ingredients, with one exception: it doesn't sort by the base value, but rather by the rolled values of the ID. Revealed items would be always shuffled to the end of the result list.

These are my two suggestions. The only problems I can see are dev time (obviously), and the actual possibility of coding something like this into the game. If you know something is not possible to achieve, tell me, and I'll try to rework the suggestion accordingly.
If you have any improvements and additions to the sorting types, or if I left out an item category, feel free to tell me.

 

Buuuuuump!

 

Would love to see all these options added Would help a lot with finding best value on the trade market.

 

Yes! A reply!!! I've been waiting for this moment for a month now. Thank you.

 

No problem, I think the features suggested would be great for all players to find the items they want for a build at good value.

 

Buuuuuump!

 

well, some good news

 

Nice! (Although it's still not that much.)

 

Buuuuuump!
I know about the 1.20.2 sorting options, they're cool and all, but I think the suggestion is still relevant, as it has more than what the game currently has to offer.

 

Buuuuuump!

 

I love both ideas but im gonna say no to the market cause lets be real. We all know someone will find a way to dupe with it and shut it down for a month.

 

That's not a reason not to vote it. You're missing the point of the thread, and my, the suggester's responsibilites. I'm just suggesting something about the Trade Market, and immediately jumping to the conclusion that somebody will break it just derails what I was talking about. Being afraid of dupes has nothing to do with all of this.

 

Buuuuuump!

 

Cool idea!

 

Buuuuuump!

 

Finally someone said it!

 

Buuuuuump!

 

Buuuuuump!

 

Wooo, 50 supporters! Also bump.

 

Buuuuuump!
