As discussed on Discord, I'd like a way to display appearances/mentions of certain things.
The main use case is Hoid. The idea is to have a simple way to see, at a glance, which books Hoid has appearances and/or mentions in. It doesn't really make sense to track Hoid with arrows (lots of targets but nothing for them to point from)... Thus this idea.
From there I figured it made sense to do the same with Khriss and Nazh. Maybe there will be other characters or organizations or items that it makes sense to do this with over time.
I toyed with using initials to indicate this for all of them at once. I think we agree that showing one at a time would be the cleanest way to do this. I think something simple like this would work really well:
(showing Hoid appearances as solid and mentions as empty)
So the idea would be to put another dropdown box on the side which defaults to "none" but gives Hoid, Khriss, Nazh, and maybe others as options.
You raised the idea of showing an initial along with it. Symbol doesn't have to be full/empty circles. Just something along that concept seems good.
Hovering on the symbol should give a tooltip with more info.
I've put the info for Hoid appearances/mentions in data.json.
