'Swap marking slots' item

i've been playing with wolf markings a lot lately on both puppies and wolves i've purchased, and one thing i thought could be nice would be a (probably grove) item that allows you to swap the position slots of 2 markings.

EX:

Marking 1: White socks
Marking 2: Nothing
Marking 3: Nothing
Marking 4: Cream unders

- select to use the marking swapper from your inventory, and select markings 1 and 4 to swap -

Swapped results:

Marking 1: Cream unders
Marking 2: Nothing
Marking 3: Nothing
Marking 4: White socks

With this, you could also swap markings to slots that currently have 'nothing', just to change 1 markings position.
This would open up more opportunities for people to play with layering in interesting ways, without having to go through the hassle of managing a ton of different grove purchases. to keep 'rare' markings more limited, they could be exempt from the swapping item if need be!

i'm not sure if this has been suggested before, but i thought i'd throw it out there! feel free to lock if this is a repeat!

SUPER SUPPORT THIS!! I play with my wolves layering in wardrobe all the time and the amount of pups Id have loved to keep if their layering were a biiiiiiiiiiiiiit different to give a more suitable design for my pack design goals is too many

this one is a bit iffy- the reason this doesn't exist on lioden (afaik, i haven't played in awhile) is that certain markings, such as raffle marks, or june markings, are in specific slots- this has created incentive for some to attempt to breed them into other slots and making things like celestial speckles in certain slots more valuable. wolvden currently has no comparison to this, as raffles don't exist/may not be planned. i'm 50/50 on it.

I do not support.

Slot rarity is totally a thing you can use; for breeding purposes, pricing, RMAs and so on. If you could simply switch those around, I think it would take too much away. 

Oooh, great idea! Support. I could see this being worth more than your generic Marking Opacity Changer or RMA, since it would be a more involved function...but might be well worth it for many players. 

Support. You already got the marking, I think it makes sense to have a way to move it.

Since @dynne was talking about certain special markings potentially being exclusive to certain slots, I think this would be great to implement now so that the devs can code a 'lock' into special marks. Most markings you can just move around but add a flag to the special ones devs dont want moving that makes them non-eligible for slot swapping. So if you had a special in slot 8, when you go to use the item slot 8 just wouldn't show up and you can only work around it.

@lesbirds

it's not that the markings are 'exclusive' to the slots- its that they're more common in the slots they originate from, thus, deviations from those specific slots are worth more.

the first june event came with raffle lionesses on lioden, as my example. i'm not getting the slots all correct here because my memory isnt THAT good but i think you'll still get the point.

each raffle lioness has

• celestial agouti in slot 2
• celestial cover in slot 4
• celestial shine in slot 6
• celestial speckles in slot 8

and thus, their cubs are more likely to inherit those markings in those slots. but celestial speckles is a nice marking that covers a lot of area, and happens to look very pleasing on slot 10- so... some people began breeding celestial speckles into slot 10, instead of slot 8.

thus, lions with celestial speckles in slot 10 are worth more, as it prevents them from being covered up by any other markings!

it's not about the markings being 'locked' to an area, my 50/50 comes from the fact that there is not only a DRIVE for projects such as this, there is also a MARKET for it. it wouldn't hurt to introduce it asap, but it would be a little disappointing and remove difficulty from some breeding projects.

I need this in my life! Can't tell you how many times I get good markings covered by other ones!

Please, I was thinking how much I wanted this feature after using the random mark granting items from the Grove. I got something that's great by chance but itd look so much better if I could drag it down a slot like I can do in the wardrobe. 

we can already change the opacities with an item, swapping slots with another goldcone item would be sweet.

I have several pups I would love to spend GC on to swap some markings around. If there are markings tied to raffle wolves then all the better that those markings get to be swapped and thus more creatively used in breeding projects to come. Why ask to limit ourselves on this new game that is not LD when the Devs have made it more than clear in the News even that WD is different?

And any item that promotes buying more GC to keep this site running for all of us to enjoy, all the better in my opinion.
