Loadout / Looting: Improve automation, strength detection, looting options

[ChrisNZL]

Report from 0.3.6c, Android:

The automatic weapon selection is beyond frustrating. It doesn't seem to work as intended, as it will auto select weapons, very very frequently, that have less strength, less overall damage, that are at a lower level and with less rarity (yes, all at the same time). It doesn't make any sense, and it's aggravating to have to go the load-out everytime to select the previous weapon I was using. I suggest either fix the autoselect, or give us an option to either equip or not a weapon directly when we inspect it in a chest. Having the option to mark it as junk at this stage would be nice as well.

Tasks

To look at for all platforms.

When looting a weapon:

• [ ] Provide option to let player manually assign the weapon to a slot
  • A quick overlay, or shortcut to open the Loadout tab, could be handy
• [ ] Provide option to mark item as junk
• [ ] Provide option to equip immediately

Filters:

• [ ] Double-check the "Attack Power" filter from the Loadout
• [ ] Ensure filters are sorting weapons desirably
• [ ] Create new sort filter: "Time acquired"

Thoughts for looting from chests:

• Touchscreen: Show two buttons: "Acquire & Equip" and "Acquire".

• Keyboard & Gamepads: Perhaps handle two actions: Press & Hold to "Acquire & Equip", or just Press to "Acquire".

The "Acquire & Equip" touchscreen button sounds perfect to me.
