"you drank 24 earthshakers"

Would it be possible to have the default action for drinks be "just one" instead of the whole stack? It can get really expensive when one misclicks - a stack of earthshakers is worth 3,648 currants. 

This is a particular UX problem when using a Wacom tablet, but even when I remember to use the keyboard, I've still accidentally hit an extra "enter" and drank a whole stack. 

I realize with something like butterfly milk, a whole stack might be a preferable default option. But in the scenarios I can think of, the intent of drinking a whole stack is less likely than that of drinking just one.

  • So like the no no fix?

  • This is another argument in favor of the default for everything being ONE OF THESE instead of ALL OF THESE.

  • Or it the All of these gets put at the end for finished products? Cause dropping would suck.

  • Yes, the No-No fix was great! Why the hell would I want to sniff 10 at a time? o_O

  • +1 for this. I've done the same with Earthshakers, too. :P

  • I think the default action is to do half of whatever you have, isn't it?  By which I mean if you click and hit enter. 

    If the cursor is over the place where the "All" or "Just One" options are, then that's the one your enter button will hit,  I think.

  • The REAL fix would be cumulative buffs. If you drink 24 earthshakers by mistake or otherwise, you should have the buff for 24x as long.  It's generally disadvantageous to use more than one of ANYTHING with a buff.  The only thing that seems to work sensibly is Zilloween candy and Candy Rush.

  • +1 for the original idea.  Cumulative buffs would be a good compromise, but having the default for drinks as one would be great.  I've drunk 10 flaming humbabas at once by mistake.

  • All buffs should be sequential, not overlapping (or piling up, or however you want to describe it). It is tedious to have to drink or munch things one after another.

  • I am really surprised why this hasn't been fixed yet.  One should be the default, not All.

    I haven't (yet) accidentally consumed a stack of expensive drink or food, but I have accidentally donated ALL of an item.  If I remember correctly, it was hundreds of potatoes donated when I only needed very little favor to get an emblem.  That was painful.

  • Yeah, I don't see why not to have cumulative buffs.  I should either be limited to using one of a buffing item (herbs come to mind) or I should be able to get a cumulative buff (E.g. candy)

  • +1 x infinity ! in almost all cases of food and drink I'd SO much prefer the default tobe ONE.
