Ability to sort or change order of links in editor

19 years ago

I had a look through the Feature Wishing Well, and I couldn't see this mentioned, so in case no one has:

It would be really, really, nice to have an UP / DOWN arrow (or something) beside option links in the editor, so that if you realise you wanted another link on that page, but wanted to 'insert' it at the top of the list of links, or in the middle somewhere, you could move it up from the bottom of the list.

Ie, in my character creation page, depending on variables, it is possible to have 17 options in a long list at the same time while playing the game and creating your character. My problem is, the top few options are for adjusting attributes, the lower options are for quickly making a character of a certain type with one click, and the bottom option resets all the characters attributes to zero if they want to begin again, then there's the option to finish character creation and play the story. However, whenever I realise I want to insert another character creation option, the new link is generated at the bottom of the list. This means, to keep the visual order of the options, I have to delete a few of the lower options, until the link is where I want it, then re-create the deleted options all over again, so that they are below the new link.

The hassle of this is, my story has heaps of variables, and almost every link throughout my story uses a number of the variables, so anytime I need to delete a link, then re-create it to keep it at the bottom of the list, it can begin to become a pain... Especially if I realise I need the new link at the top of the options, and have to delete all the other ones to get it there!

Other than that, the Advanced Editor is AWESOME!

Can't wait for this to happen. I keep checking to see if it's been accepted yet. Would make so many parts of my story easier to edit.
