Other - Journey Mode NEEDS this features! - QoL

[Rexsilion26]

I recently decided to play Terraria with Mods, and the Mod I decided to try is called Hyper Research.
Link: Steam Workshop::Hyper Research
-
This Mod adds many options that improve various aspects of Journey Mode, and while I don't think they all should be in vanilla Terraria,
there are 5 elements that I think should DEFINITELY be implemented into the game.
-
The elements in question are the following:
__________

- AUTO-RESEARCH -

This function makes that when the required quantity of an item is obtained, this is automatically researched.
But that's not all! All items that can be crafted with the items you researched will also be added to the Journey Mode inventory.
AND EVEN MORE! After finding the shimmer, all items that you can access through transmutations with the items you have researched will be researched too!
-
This system is so practical and greatly improves the gaming experience.
__________

- RESEARCH ALL BUTTON -

A simple button below the inventory interface that, when pressed, will research all items that can be researched in the inventory.
Hotbar items and favorited items are ignored.
-
This option is very good for clearing your inventory of items that you need to research but don't have the required amount.
__________

- DELETE ITEMS ALREADY RESEARCHED -

Another button below the inventory interface that, when pressed, will eliminate items that have already been researched from your inventory.
Hotbar items and favorited items are ignored.
-
It helps a lot to clean up your inventory.
__________

- RESEARCH BAGS & CRATES CONTENT -

Once you have a type of Bag or Crate researched, all items that you can get through them will be researched.
-
This is extremely useful, as there is no reason to make the player have to open a bag 1000000 times to get a specific item.
__________

- RESEACH NPCs SHOP CONTENT -

When opening an NPC's store inventory, its contents will be automatically researched.
-
This is very necessary, as having to buy items one by one and then research them is quite boring and unnecessary.

These are good. Hell I don’t even have anything I want to add or tweak here. That’s how good these are.

I likey, I gotta say the research all feature would mean it would be already pretty easy speed running researching crates and and boss bags.

yea I think the main thing that is good about the last four is that it eliminates repetitive actions. Im not too sure about the auto research though. I just really think that the button ought to do a single immediate thing. the other four you can click for and then an action happens but this is more of a status to keep in mind and I'm not too big on that. but like yea getting rid of the repetition is a huge thing.

Honestly these are pretty good, deleting items I've already researched begins to become a hassle and the whole luck mechanic through bags and crates is very repetitive.

When opening an NPC's store inventory, its contents will be automatically researched.

Though I am a bit mistaken on this, does this mean it is completely researched free of charge or does the player have to buy them?

how about its just reserched if you reserched money

You would need to have the money, I guess.
Since is in journey mode, geting the money should not be a problem.

So for the Shimmer stuff, it Auto Unlock’s if you manually research any shimmer exclusive item, and the shops could just check that you have money researched

So if I shimmer an apple I should auto research the terraformer? It should only auto shimmer shimmerable items in your inventories (including piggy bank, safe, etc etc)

 

[Rexsilion26]

In the MOD from which I got these ideas, from the moment you find the shimmer, the items that you could obtain by transmuting the items that you ALREADY HAVE RESEARCHED will be automatically researched.
-
It will not research for items that you do not yet have the item to obtain.

I meant that once you manually do any shimmer item, it gives all shimmer items when you get the normal version

oh is this for specifically items like Aegis Fruit and Peddlers Satchel? I guess that would be good. I just think EVERY item could be too complicated. Too many items to make that work. I think that could be more confusing.
