Material / Cargo Blacklist editing

Today I opened a ticked asking how to remove materials from my blacklist. I explained that i knew that you can just find the resources one by one and them un-blacklist it in the "contacts" tab. Since a lot of Materials are harder to find and you have no way to see if your blacklist is empty, you have no way to find out if something is still on your blacklist until you find it again.

While the support was very nice and apologetic about my question, I feel like this problem could easily be solved by giving us the option to blacklist / un-blacklist materials in the inventory (which still would not fix cargo or mining pickups) or by letting us edit the entire blacklist. I'd even be ok with the blacklist being saved locally instead of on the server in an editable file. That wouldn't be as easy to access for the average player, but it would at least give us SOME possibility do edit it without the devs having to do UI stuff.

Please, I just want to have certainty that my blacklist is empty instead of having to look into contacts after every single kill.
 
Dunno, I find it easy to remove stuff from the blacklists - no need to remove it until I find it 🤷‍♀️ Lots of actual broken stuff that needs fixing before this comes up

Broken stuff? I must have misread i thought this was "suggestions" not "bug reports"

Also I don't think your passive aggressive personal preference excuses the lack of a function that is being asked for in multiple threads over the internet (found multiple on reddit)

"no need to remove it until i find it" also makes little sense since it would be way easier to find if it wasn't hidden which can happen by accident.

Zock, I concur with your assessment here, but I do agree that there are bugs which need to be fixed before adding additional features, which, knowing FDev, will probably be broken on release...

Having said that, I also know that FDev will do what FDev will do...regardless of what we want...

I think you are mistaken about who is being passive aggressive here :) Lots of things get asked for multiple times because there are lots of confused people on the internet. And you can't hide things by accident - you presses those keys...

The only good reason to ignore things is for mining - any materials you get to 100% get auto-ignored so there is never a reason to ignore them. And if you are mining it takes approximately zero time to realise it is happening. So there is no need for this to change 🤷‍♀️
 
This would go in that very long list of nice QoL improvements that many would like to see implemented.

Unfortunately, I don't see it happening anytime soon, although every now and again some of these little changes randomly appear during an update so, who knows?

I 100% agree bugs are of a higher priority. But i posted this in "suggestions" which made that argument of mr factabulous irrelevant.

If they get to this I'm happy, if not thats fine too. Its a suggestion.
