Bag Sorting Presets

Ugh. I won't forget the first time I clicked that evil Bag Sort button years ago. I sat there dumbfounded and bug-eyed at the meticulously packed and alphabetized inventory that just moments prior had been my carefully constructed train wreck of bag contents. After recovering, I decided never to go near that button ever again.

Over time of course, player requests and simple curiosity led me to finally learn the arcane inner secrets of bag sorting, and I finally concluded that the feature is a bit like going to the dentist: impossible to enjoy, but hard to live without. The big downside is the annoying constellation of checkboxes that have to be fiddled with every time you create an alt, or swap out old bags for newer, roomier ones.

Big thanks to Darq Side member korpo53 who made the suggestion to end some of that pain. Over the past couple of weeks he has worked with me designing the Bag Sorting Presets feature through no fewer than eight revisions! If you are already a devout user of bag sorting, or if you've been reluctant to use it in the past, I think you're going to get some real value out of this improvement. Take a look at the tutorial above for all the deets!
