Map Search: Shrines and Vendors

I love the map search for locations, but often I find myself mousing over icons on tons of streets just to look for specific shrines and street vendors. If the map's search feature could be extended to shrines and vendors, I would find it extremely useful. Also, as a beginner, I expected this feature to be in map search, only to realize (to my dissappointment and confusion) that I could only search street titles.

How it would work:
When typing in the search box, it would default to just places. However, if you start typing something relevant to general or specific shrines or vendors (for example: "Alph", "groceries", "animal goods vendor"), places with the appropropriate vendors or shrines would be displayed in search results (with vendors and shrines in the current area displayed on top). The results could be displayed the same, with place names separated into categories, except they'd also be searchable by vendor and shrine queries.

  • I completely agree with this.  It would even be nice if the relevant vendors/shrines would just light up on the map as you typed, that way you could easily choose whichever was closest.

  • I was wondering if there could be a way for us to mouse over a street name on the map and get the info that you get when entering a street ( How many times youve been , what animals and plants are there , as well as what other users.).

    I feel like a lot of my game time is spent wondering around looking for that one tree or that one animal or just for a place I havent been before .

  • If you can use the greasemonkey scripts, check this thread for good ones! The "nearest features" writer also has a non-greasemonkey version on their site.
