Component View in Workshop Junk Tab (like PIP-Boy's)

[jchamlin]

A little-known feature of the PIP-Boy's Inventory->Junk tab is that you can press "C" and it will switch to a view where you can see all the components/materials in your Junk inventory instead of the items. You can then also tag/untag individual crafting components. This appears to be the only place in the game that allows this.

 

However, most people don't store all their Junk on their character, they store in in the Workbench. And the Workbence doesn't have a Component View option. And there's a "Store all Junk" but not a "Take all Junk" option.

 

So, the only way I know of to be able to see how much of each crafting material you have and to tag individual materials is to transfer all the junk from the workshop back to your character -- one item at a time, and that's slow! And then load up the PIP-Boy Inventory->Junk tab, press "C" to switch to component view, and then you can tag or untag individual components as well as see how much of each one you have to help you make decisions on what to tag, and then select "store all junk" when done to put it all back. At least putting it all back is fast.

 

It sure would be nice to have a faster way to perform those two use cases. Either a "take all junk" option (the opposite of store all junk), or a component view in the Workshop junk tab would both solve the problem.

It's be nice if there was a scrap items ability in the pipboy. Also remove mods.
