Can also cycle things to and from your backpack to move them to the top of the queue, and hide more valuable rocks (lime, granite) in your backpack til you need them. Once you get used to it I think it's a rather good system, or at least less bad than the alternatives.

I wouldn't mind some way to make it a little more obvious which item is getting used or about to get used... The green highlighting can be tedious to find in a full inventory sometimes, especially with recipes that have many ingredients. I'm imagining a little popup box that gets filled with the otherwise green highlighted items that you can easily swap in and out of just like any other container. Maybe buildings could be toggled to show the unbuilt stored items with a hotkey (you wouldn't want to do this with something that takes hundreds of items, but then again you probably wouldn't store them all unbuilt all at once since that decays quickly)

A forum subthread for creative salem ventures such as art, stories, music, player created stuff about the game itself. As of now that stuff is getting spread around mostly in city on a hill, and I loved the art contest thread and would like to encourage more of that kind of thing in general.

Equipping a crucifix should give a small, maybe tiny, but independed roll on spells that a witch casts on you to fail or even backfire.

Only if its a Gold Encrusted Crucifix that has wear and tear that slowly drains as you wear it.

Sounds like a terrible way to fight something that is totally worthless atm.

UI improvement where if you hold right click on something with a flower menu and move in the direction towards the option before releasing then it selects that item. Kind of annoying to have to wait for those little options to appear and then click on them, if you want to select the one to the upper right over and over you could just click and drag in that direction.

The Latikai option for holding ctrl for a single option menu is awesome but would this would be handy for other cases. (there's also the auto select by option name in latikai but that's a little dangerous to overuse, ie, splitting curious cabbages :cry:)

Hmmm. I will consider this. I do like it.
