So I have a plugin in mind and wondering if anyone wants to take a shot at it.
It might be to silly, but I try anyways.

Would it be possible to create a plugin that uses the output from ImpInventory (or its own internal scanning) to compile a full list of stuff on mules. Then take this list and let you direct certain things to specific mules?

Sorry if I am not making alot of sense, my problem is I have something like 22 mules, and 3 villas.
I try to sit down and sort/arrange the contents of the mules and I get frustrated and give up.
Some things are really easy
I have a mule for armor tinkering supplies, a mule for weapon salvage, etc.
I have mules setup to hold armor, shirts and pants here, hats, gloves etc on another.

In a perfect world, it would tell me you have 10 pack pumpkin lords... I could set the # I want to keep and the others would be marked to goto a selloff mule or a chest to be sold.
I would log into different mules and it would say these items are set for X mule. I hand them over or chest them over.
I then could try to control the chaos my mules have become.
Nothing is more frustrating that almost getting mules set, and then discovering they lack the strength to hold everything I want to stuff on them.

Anyone think this would be useful or wanna help a wubbie out?

You can use alinco for this, if you can find alinco. It has the ability to scan packs and store it to a database.

I'm actually working on the back end for a website where I can upload the xml's created from lifetank, and it will put everything into a database, and output a vnboards friendly document, or allow you to search for stuff you want.

Doesn't Find IT or one of the ITs! also have something simular? I have been trying to switch to the ITs slowing but surely since Alinco isn't active anymore. I just have to get used to them and you know change and people don't mix all the time :-)

I'm not sure any of them offer the ability to plan moving items around.
I have ImpInventory and Alnico, its the sorting items around thats got me stumped.
Be awesome to see before i start stuffing things on a mule that my plans won't work unless I get it more str...

I've always been planning something like this for AC+, when I add in an enhanced inventory system. Unfortunately, my life's a steaming pile of utter chaos right now, and I'm seriously struggling to find time. I agree it's something that's badly needed, I've got fully loaded mules that I can't make the time to sort out myself.

Thorfinn_Sigurdssen but i want it NOW NOW NOW

hehe trust me I understand how that new game called reality can just wreck your day, week, month, year.
I don't have as much time to get in game as I would like these days and trying to triple log and using notes of what items are ment to go where is killing my soul.

So far I've done an ok job of keeping chef and my tinkerer from ending up with excess stuff on them, but its getting harder to avoid using the empty slots they have to just hold stuff "for a second" because I know they would end up stuffed to the gills...
