Belt cycling in the main interface #153

Open Kaimdrol opened 1 year ago

Suggestion

In the main window, you can show the rates of production by items/m, belts, wagons/m, etc. If you want to change the belt selection from yellow to red (for example) you have to open the preferences, select it, and come back. If you're in the compact view, you even have to switch back to the main view to have access to the preferences.

I propose setting a shortcut, like alt+Left-click, directly on that button, to cycle between belts, both in normal and compact views. Maybe if a mod has too many different belts you can change the preferences to select which belts to cycle.

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. That's interesting for sure, and I agree it would be nice to have. Thinking about it for a bit though, the UI and implementation would be too complex for the value it provides I feel, so I'll have to say that I won't be implementing this.
