I suspect this has been discussed before, I went through a few pages of ideas and couldn't find it, so here comes a repost:
When you pick stuff up and it enters your bags, it enters and stacks from left to right. When you craft something that takes stuff from your bags, this also removes stacks left to right. This means that it is very easy to have inefficient bag slot usage going on, when you've got 3 items on the right and 5 items on the left when they could easily fit in a stack.
Could we please have one of:
- an auto stack - sort through all your bags and stack everything to maximum stack
- smart crafting selection - use small stacks before grabbing full stacks
- right to left crafting selection - an alternative to the above "smart" crafting, just take from the rightmost stack first. This isn't perfect as it's easy to drop a full stack to the right of a half stack, but it's better than the way things work now (in my opinion) as you'll likely chew up that small stack sooner than you would in the current system.
Thanks.
