Show text instead of visuals for bags/endurance badge/challenge badge/etc - Terran - 09-12-2018
Basically, instead of looking through all the guns to see which is which, it'll list them like
Omnipotent Bizon of Phoenix
Flowndoomer M1911
Terranable AUG
Colored, of course. To take one out you just click the text of the name. I hate looking through a bag trying to find that "one" challenge gun and scrolling over so many unlikelys and stuff.

This would be a nifty minimal ui setting, for entire inv/bank.

This could work for backpacks, but for inv/bank no. It needs a slot-type format, not a list-structure, and the fact is, item names can be much larger than a simple item slot.
Wouldn't a better feature be a search bar that highlights what ever it finds that matches your query?

Forerunner Search Engine would save me tons of time searching for a specific item.

I made a prototype of that. It's not really that good in practice. It makes the description feel awkward, and some storage devices are even bigger than 15 slots. There's no way to scrollbar the description, and it looks really just.. Awkward. It just doesn't feel good, and feels like an overwhelming amount of text on full Backpacks.
For instance:
Though with some adjustments, it's not that bad. I suppose I could re-enable it as an option:

I assume it'd look clean and precise.
