Feature: "Fodder" flag #925

Open Raijinili opened 8 years ago

Raijinili commented 8 years ago

Idea: A monster in the box can be marked as "Fodder".

Replaces "Food" and "Materials" pages. All monsters will be in "Box" and have a CHR. There will be a filter option to ignore Fodder.

Benefits of a fodder flag.

Additional enhancements:

While I like the idea of monsters and materials being on the same page, it sounds like this can get a little annoying. As it stands, adding materials is as easy as finding the monster we want to add and clicking up and down to show how many we have. The way you've described it, we'd have to actually go through and search for/add our materials manually. Sounds like a pain for those of us with hundreds of evo mats.

The suggestion has JSON-updating in mind. Two ways to adjust for manual updaters:

  1. Fork Padherder's interface. One interface is optimized for manual updating, the other is optimized for auto updating. You choose in your settings. (I don't think there are enough dev hours to maintain both, so it's better to just improve the original idea with both in mind.)
  2. You can still manually adjust material count, and manually use evo mats. If you've ever uploaded a JSON, Padherder will keep track of known CHRs for each evo mat, and the CHR set might be smaller or bigger than the number of evo mats you list (even if the evo mats are 0). Next JSON sync will update those lists of CHRs.

I don't upload JSONs as padproxy doesn't work for me.
