craft -searchall

[Rabek]

I could swear this used to be a thing, in the form of craft -all -search/show. Maybe I'm imagining it.

Still, often times I want to make something. Usually a cooking recipe. Say it's a pie. Now, I can craft something like "fruit dessert" (though can we have vegetable dessert for pumpkin pies and the like?). But I'm not immediately sure if maybe there is a more specific "pie" recipe higher in the ranks that I can't access yet.

It would be of value to provide an option that allows -search to work on unlearned recipes, even if it's just a title search. If it's deliberate that 'show' can't be used on unlearned recipes, then have it just search titles, otherwise let it search ingredients.

I've heard other crafters find it useful that they could search all ingredients, too, so they know what sort of items and byproducts to save and which to discard.

Once again, the key point in this idea is to search all recipes, not just learned ones, without having to manually go through the entire list. There's just too many recipes for that to be comfortable for my eyes.

I think manually going through the red recipe names is as close as you can get, other than finding someone who knows the craft to higher ranks than you. The commands were intentionally changed so that you can no longer see ingredients or other information on recipes you can't make. So I don't think ingredient search for those would happen, or they may as well open up "show" again too.

But +1 in case this is open to consideration =)
