Other Adding Notes to Characters and Worlds

[Cratuss]

Hi,

I think every long-time Terraria player has found themselves in the following situation at least once or twice:

You have a lot of worlds and characters on your PC, but after a couple of months of not playing Terraria, you come back and can't remember which worlds were used by which characters. Or what you used World "xyz" for. Maybe you played with a friend in that world, or maybe it was just a world to test some things. "With which character did I play in this world again?"

As someone who feels the urge to clean up worlds that I cannot assign to anything, I end up deleting them.

Sure, you could give them fitting names to help you remember. For example, the character Cratuss and the corresponding Cratuss' World.

But I think it would be much cooler to be able to give every character and world a short note. For instance, a note for my character might look like this: "I used this character to play in World xyz with my friend Sam."

Another idea could be to automate this by providing data for each character and/or world. For example, it could track which world a character played in, for how long, and with which friends.

Something like this instead of endless .txt notes would be great.

Hope the Devs see and like your idea enough to implement it

thanks :3 yeah i hope so too. i think it is a small change, probably quick implemented but could have a huge QoL effect.

Yeah I don't see any reason against this: it just seems like a nice, helpful addition.

 

[Cratuss]

is there any other ways i can recommend this idea to the devs?

Oh yes please, I've wanted this for so long. I've got worlds named World 1 through to World 20-something and I can remember the purpose of five of them.
