Following up on an idea mentioned 7 years ago: Multiple Ideas: Contracts [Additional Filters] & Tool Tip Update and more for all things Abyssal. Specifically the one about adding additional Search Filters to Contract Searches centred around Abyssal Modules.
Currently there is no way to filter Contracts with Abyssal Modules. I’m not talking about finding Abyssal Modules in general but rather I’m asking for Search Filters which will allow us to filter a specific Abyssal Module (say Weapon Upgrades, like Heat Sink, Magnetic Field Stabilizer, Gyro Stabilizer, Ballistic Control System) by the Mutaplasmid and Base Module used, and the modified stats.
Say you’re looking to buy an Abyssal Ballistic Control System, it would help greatly if you specify what stat ranges you’re specifically looking for, like for example:
Category (Module Types) - Web, Warp Scram, Warp Disrupt, Heavy Warp Scram, Heavy Warp Disrupt, Magnetic Field Stabilizer, Heat Sink, etc., etc.
Meta Group - T1, T2, Storyline, Faction, Deadspace, Officer.
Meta Level - 0 to 17
Stats [Ranges] (as an example for Heat Sinks) - CPU, Damage Modifier, Rate of Fire.
I question why we, the community, must continuously rely on 3rd party developers to make features that should have been part of the system’s design, or the very least updating old system to accommodate the new system/feature, from the beginning. There are no way to filter the trash from the gold ingame and thus we must use 3rd party websites like MutaMarket.com to actually find what we want.
Sure, the development time may have taken longer but I’m sure most of the player-base would welcome that for a more polished experience.
