Probably the one thing in the game that I think is worthy of r/badUIbattles. It's super easy to accidentally delete items you don't want to.

My recommendation - have a dedicated rubbish bin on the UI where you can drag items to delete.

Combine this with improved stack UI/UX and you should in a few clicks pickup a single item, whole stack of items, half of the stack, etc and then just drop them on the rubbish bin.

Having a hotkey like Ctrl + RMB might be a good way to delete quicker, and maybe something like Ctrl + Shift + RMB to delete whole stack - but best sync this with stack pickup UI/UX systems.

Gorcha! ATM there’s a pretty basic hold RMB on the item in the inventory and it starts deleting but I think you mean for the board in general or other items?

Oh no I do mean the RMB delete on the inventory bar. That one is extremely easy to accidentally delete something you don't want, as it speeds up. It's also quite slow, and it's almost impossible to delete say 4 items.

Would be good for the same mechanics to also work for stuff on the board though - just drag and drop them to the bin

I will say that I agree with the idea that delete would benefit from being changed in some way. I was trying to toss a whole stack of furniture I was replacing, and accidently ate my entire stockpile of a couple bot mats, and an upside-down-red egg I had just gotten.

Of course it is! I would have been shocked if you WEREN'T busy with launch coming. Game's already fun anyway, even if you didn't do any of the things in here. It's just amazing how obvious the team's love of the project is 🙂
