Improve emoji suggestion logic #28

Open BadgerCode opened 5 years ago

BadgerCode commented 5 years ago

Short code = what the player has typed

Current logic:

If the short code exactly matches the emoji code, show this option first
Otherwise, if the emoji code or emoji tags contain the short code, add it to the list of suggestions

Ideal logic:

Show exact matches first
Then show emojis where the emoji code starts with the short code
Then show emojis where the emoji code contains the short code
Then show emojis where any tag contains the short code

Make sure to sort each individual result group alphabetically by emoji code.
