    Star Menu sorting problem with booked Explorers and Geos

    Explorer and Geos with books are all over the place now.

    Why did you not use the amount of books as a secondary sort so the NPC with the most books for each class is at the beginning?

    Now we have to click on everyone of them when sending out Geos and Explorers trying to find right ones with the right books to do the jobs. Oh and every time you change the sort order and go back to another sort it jumbles them all up by books so they are in different spots :P

    For now we can name them so they are a bit easier to find by mousing over them, but it still jumbles them up each time. And even doing this does not help much when you have 20 some Geos and 20 Explorers.

    Thanks for the Star Sorting, but this oversight makes it really stink.

    ive found that naming the specialists will sort them, that way can put them in the order that you want

    - specialists order is all messed up
    - mini quests (pandas, weddings...) are on 1 tab, but the buffs for them are on another, please move the cakes and cages to the misc tab

    Yes, the sorting makes not sense in general (pun not intended) - for all tabs less the Specialist Tab. if you select type or name, you get generals (even of different sub-types) mixed in all sorts of order with Marshall's (which I would like a way to delete), geologists and explorers... if you select name, same thing, though sorts on name (if given or defaulting to type name).

    In the case of Geologists and Explorers we have them each trained in specific science skills for specific tasks, now these specialists are all scattered so performing tasks that used to be quick, take time to just find the specialist you need for that task. Asking us to re-train our specialists would not be a reasonable response as the cost to do so would be prohibitive to most and repugnant to all.

    For all of the tabs aside the Specialist tab, I will easily get used to and adapt. I do not believe that the Specialist Tab is workable in its current form. Though some might be content in naming (renaming all in my case) to accommodate this bizarre sorting algorithm, I think that is ridiculous that an update should result in users having to do such nonsense. This update was supposed to make it easier on the user, and in all tabs but the Specialist, it probably does...

    For the specialist tab, optimally, we would have at least two fields to sort order on; one to sort by type (General, Marshal, Geologist, Explorer) then by whatever it is we want after that (Date it appears was the old second sort-order).

    Default is not clear what it is sorting for, but for specialists it stinks. Please, Please make an option of 'OLD WAY', whatever that search criteria was.

    Thx evil J that helped a lot.

    I renamed them again so it forces them to front of list

    Well, sorting for the Star Menu is okay for all tabs less the Specialist Tab; I mean seriously messed up in the Specialist Tab; I cannot access any science trained Explorer/Geo I need for specific tasks without running through the entire collage of specialists. This seriously cramps the morning tasks I do.

    If you cannot allow at least two sort orders, then PLEASE revert to the old sorting method (or offer as an option) for the Specialist Tab. I don't need/want my generals mixed in with my geos when looking for granite mines, etc...

    To me this frustration actually hit me like a pin being stuck in a balloon.. almost all enthusiasm is gone.

    missing big cats from buffs
    other guildies report their assassins are missing.
    sort gen by type is not working (vet, vet, vet, drac, vet ??)
    sort adv by type - no change (epic, ft etc should be together).

    sort buffs should have more options -- ie by duration, by multiplier..



    its a good start (as long as i get my big cat's back)

    Wow the constant resorting of the star menu is just crazy. Trying to send out my booked geo's and explorers while skipping the non-booked is such a PIA. At least have them sort by profession and then title.

    Searching in star is very welcome though. Still have a lot of great game suggestions in http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/t...Needful-Things

    My Geo's are also coming back early from searches w/o completing their task.
