Critique on Shift+Right Click on Smelter

Post by kemil88 »

I am raging so much for this! I was lagging and spamming shift + right click on smelter to add the charcoal, without thinking that in the same way, if you have not an item in the cursor, you take all the items from the smelter! So, what did happend? The ores were at 99%, and now I have to restart the process!
I think there should be some way to prevent things like this, shift + right click is useful in both situations, but it should not cause issues like this one!

Game's way of telling you "Ah-ah, not so fast!".

I want to be able to take all from a container. What UI would you prefer?

Change the auto-fill keybind to Alt+Rclick, that way the two are separate and the whole "shift+..." functionality remains consistent with other applications.

Implemented in every inventory widget in the entire game?

Would something similar to this not be possible?
