Extractor icon on gui/toolbar
« on: January 07, 2014, 12:50:04 pm »
I think it would be handy if on the toolbar somewhere it had the ability to have an icon for each Extractor that is out in the field, and if you hover over the icon, or click it, it will show the coordinates.
That way you are always aware if you have an extractor out there, and you will always be able to find it

Good idea, but it would be more realistic if you had to pay for the telecomunication service (3G, GPS) ;)
I dont like it, but it is more realistic!

One of the nice additions to the quick bar in AWS is that extractors placed on a find don't disappear from the quick bar. If the coordinates for a placed extractor could be written on top of the extractor's quick bar icon or in the tool tip when you hover over it I think it would make life a lot easier for those of us that do UG mining.

Of course, if we had a built-in notepad function we could at least make a note of the coordinates ourselves though we'd have to remember to do that each time. So the written-over/tool tip icon idea would be a lot nicer.
