And now that I finally read enough forum posts to find out about the ust strings, FindIt does exactly what I want. <3

Yeah, Ust strings were a good idea gone bad. They gave ultimate flexibility but were so unlike the UI of anything else nobody understood them.


I'm thinking of going to a single number. Anything below it gets usted into a single bag (assuming it meets the minimum level to loot), anything above it gets usted into level specific bags.


I.e. I have steel minimum set to 5, and ust level to 9. Levels 5-7 get put in a single bag, 8 gets combined with other 8s, 9 with other 9s and 10 with other 10s.

Hey now, I really liked the idea of ust strings. I thought maybe I'd eventually add them to vtank...

AM i reading that wrong, if min was set to 5 wouldn't 1-5 be slagged together, and 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 put into single bags only combined with others of the same grade.


OR is it a typo and the UST to level 9 SHOULD have read 7 and then translates to pick up work 5+, slag 5, 6 and 7 together and only combine 8, 9 and 10 with like bags?

No - ust strings are an excellent idea documented horribly.


Now that I know how to use them, they're perfect. Don't get rid of them, just improve documentation.
