Suggestion For New Sorting System Of Components

Like many of you I find the scrolling for components to be a real disorganized frustrating waste of time.

I suggest, not knowing if it is at all possible, that we change the name of all components. I suggest this because it would seem that the component list is sorted alphabetically.

Here is my suggestion.

All required components, like Bridge, Life Support, etc, be renamed A. Bridge, A. Life Support, etc.

Other main components would then use different letters, Engines could be B, Sensors and ECM's could be C, Weapons could be D, and so on.

What this would do, hopefully, is sort these components alphabetically, thus organizing them in such a manor as to facilitate a less frustrating hunt and search method.

Will this work? Is it practice? And what would be the draw backs?

Never mind, Suicide Junkie posted this over at Shrapnel. I did not know this, and am a bit ashamed at my lack of knowledge.

Quote:
Just turn off the alphasort. Settings.txt has the default, and empire options has the per-game preference.

With alpha disabled, the components are ordered the same as they are in the text file, which is just like SE4, and way way nicer.
