DSPiron Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Is there a feature that visually shows the rules the affect a 'plugin'(.ESM,.ESP,.ESL)? Like either showing a list of rules, a list of plugins that have rules/group assignments connecting them to the plugin in question and the rule/groups determining that position, Or, (I think this might be the best version?), a thing that you click, then click a plugin, and it updates a 'Relationship' column on the 'Plugins' table with whether it's a Rule or a Group, and whether it came from the user or LOOT Does such a feature exist? Should such a feature exist? Mostly want to get second opinion before I give this suggestion through the Send Feedback feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSPiron Posted August 5, 2019 Author Share Posted August 5, 2019 ...erm,* Notices the 'Filter by plugin thing*......Well. Dang, that would pretty much do part of the job I was thinking of.I was more thinking of a feature to showed the reasoning behind each 'plugin' being put where they are in relation to a queried plugin.The 'Manage Rules's 'Set Rules' list only shows the rules attached to a plugin.The 'Manage Groups's window only shows groups in relation to other groups, while sorting the 'plugins' table by groups doesn't show if another group is after because it is supposed to be, or it's just not part of the same chainAnd there is nothing in Vortex saying LOOT masterlist's rulesBut, in retrospect, the the first two can used collectively, and LOOT might just be a list of mods, rather than set of rules.While not completely superfluous, I'm less convinced that it's that necessary...

There's also this, when you click on the sorting icon on an individual plugin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AugustaCalidia Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Clicking a colored dependencies icon on the plugins page will also display plugin(s) that a given ESM/ESP is incompatible with. That's obviously useful information when developing a game setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
