Instead of CCP Eve's team re-shuffeling the item indexes
- such that the usefull stuff hopefully floats to the top of an order by "Type".
- such that the t2 items float up when ordering by "Type"
- such that entire debates go on, and on, about what item is best... is picking that item racists towards [sensored] or blah..
to that end of, hopefully via chaous, the trash sinks downwards.

[ Then / Alternativelly ]
Allow a pilot to tag an item as "usable" (utilizable / "the utility of the item is high " ).


[ "why?" they crow ]
It is still the same cargo hold.
I am not talking about some [sensored] captains jar in her/his ship's cargo hold.
I am talking about that the taged items is removed from the current ship's cargo hold and placed into an "non crap" cargo hold.
There is no new added space.
The sum cargo hold space is shared between the 2 cargo holds.

What is being done here is that the pilot is not organizing
Metal Scraps ontop of the [sensored] ammo by taging an item as "utilizable".

[ as is ]
It's a bit of "hey Scooty, can you re load my bloody guns, i left the shells somewhere between the drones and canned food."
Yet more often then not, you get the response of "No sir, we dumped the trash back at the station".

What is going on here is a logical ability of the pilot to order the content of his or her ship by utility of items.
So that we can simply enter the non "usable" ship's cargo hold and dump said non "usable" items into the item hanger.

But as is, i have to sift through the garbage in my ships cargo hold and pluck out the items that i want to get rid of.
When it is highly plausible that i could have organized the cargo hold as i looted into CARP! and non crap!

[logic flow chart]
Pilot enters the ship's cargo hold.
Pilot right clicks the "Javelin L".
Regular menu, magickally, appears.
Pilot selects "tag item as utilizable".
"Javelin L" is magickally transported into the alternte cargo hold.

repeating this procedure for "scripts", "nanite repair paste", "stripers" , "quaffe".

Pilot goes on an rampage ..

Pilot returns to base after 3 hours.
Pilot enters his ship's "regular" cargo hold.
Ctrl+a (select all)
Drag-an-drop into item hanger.

End.
What has been gained here is the assurance that the
utilizable items are not in the items hanger, but that the utilizable items are in the ship's alternate utilizable item cargohold.

Hey, even an "anchor item to ship" option that would not respon to "ctrl-a" could do the trick.

Filters. Use them.

Opinions are like assholes. Everybody got one and everyone thinks everyone else's stinks.

YEII!! an actuall response :D

That does not suffice.
You may have misunderstood my letter.

The filter is not invertable, nor does it take multiple commands.
Maybe if I filtered out my utilizable items, and moved them into an temporary location.
Then i could select everything in my cargo hold and dump it in the item hanger; thus,
moving the utilizable items back.

The filter will not do, nor does it come close to solving what i am talking about.

The filter is used to locate an item, not an entire set of different items.

Choose needed filter > select all items > turn off filtering > invert selection. Was that too hard?
Also you can create filter that will filter out all needed items leaving only "trash" to show.

Yes, it works thank you.
No, it was not so torterous, more like...
It was like taking a shower with your clothes on.
I'll change the post to "It existed" and consider re doing the tutorial.
