Currently, when searching for wolves by Marking on the Search page or in the Trading Center, if you do not want to search for an individual, specific marking, you must search by either Color or "Type Group". These "Type Groups" include the general marking shape categories, such as Back Patch or Shepherd. Searching for one of these groups will return results for all marking shapes in that group. For example, searching for Back Patch will return wolves with Back Patch, Back Heavy Patch, Back Half Patch, and Back Edge Patch. This means that, if I want to search for wolves with Shepherd Heavy markings of any color, I must search the Shepherd Type Group, which will return every single wolf that has either a Shepherd marking or a Shepherd Heavy marking. This is an extremely inconvenient and confusing way to search for general markings. Oftentimes, I want to search for markings of one shape, with any color, and I am unable to do so easily because the search feature only allows me to search for the general groups. I must either search the shapes individually in the Specific Markings section, without an option to search for all colors, or filter through the results after searching with the Type Group function. My suggestion is to either remove the Type Group search feature and replace it with a general Marking Shape search, or add an additional Marking Shape search dropdown underneath it. With the Marking Shape dropdown, players will be able to search for any marking shape, completely unrelated to Type Groups, and they will not have to specify a color if they wouldn't like to. With this, someone could search for Cape Ticking markings (for example) in any slot with any color, and specify in how many slots that marking shape would be in, without having to filter through a bunch of wolves with the Cape marking. |

Agreed. I often want to search for Blanket Ticking etc, but there's no way to do that! |

Support! Sometimes I am looking for specific markings instead of colors. |

I just realized "wings" is one group. Scarce, heavy, and regular. This is super confusing and very difficult to look for the exact mark I want. It also makes me thing they should be breed deviation marks that can mutate into one another because it appears the game categorizes them as just one. As far as I know I don't think that's the case? Either way Maddie's suggestion would be a huge improvement! |
