#New commands to list components per place

For a while now I was hoping some command/button would be made to count/list instances of a component type depending on their location.
I would also like to be able to see the purges.
As a reminder, players should not be able to see the details of hands or decks contents. If they want to have those, they should use things like "Unplayed ACs".
Parameters would be:

  • (facultative) inDescardDetails:, inPurgeDetails:, inPlayAreaDetails:, unplayedDetails: with the values Name, NameDescription
  • (facultative) orderPlayers: with the values Ascending, Descending
    Those two parameters would add a section after the total line (see examples):
  • unplayedDetails would concatenate Deck and Players' hands
  • orderPlayers would concatenate Players' hand and Players' play area (long term idea: remove this from here and make a specific /listby command for any game component or value like space expected hits...)

Example for ACs:

Command
/locate ACs orderPlayers:Descending

Result
ACs:

  • Deck: 62
  • Discard: 39
  • Purge: 4
  • Players' hands: 15
    --- Mahact: 4
    --- Naalu: 1
    --- Argent: 6
    --- Cabal: 2
    --- Muaat: 2
  • Players' play area: 0
    Total: 120
    Players ordered descendingly:
    --- 6: Argent
    --- 4: Mahact
    --- 2: Cabal, Muaat
    --- 1: Naalu

Example for Relics:

Command
/locate Relics inPurgeDetails:Name inPlayerareaDetails:NameDescription

Result
Relics:

  • Deck: 9
  • Discard: 0
  • Purge: 2

Relic Dominus Orb
Relic The Codex

  • Players' hands: 0
  • Players' play area: 2
    --- Naalu: 1

Relic Scepter of Emelpar
When you would spend a token from your strategy pool, you may exhaust this card to spend a token from your reinforcements instead.
--- Muaat: 1
Relic The Prophet's Tears
When you research a technology, you may exhaust this card to ignore 1 prerequisite or draw 1 action card.
Total: 13

I just realized it somewhat exists for some components but it is not as precise and complete as the above:
If, in the "bot map update" thread, I press "Player Info" > choose a component > "All factions"
It does list but does not say where each item is, and only looks at players area

I would prefer the command proposed above which counts per location and describe only when asked to do so

My inclination is that this is a bit too much work for too little use case, but perhaps another dev wants to take it up. I'll leave it up here another week
