TEMPLE HOTKEYS. Please. Using E to move through doors has been a lifesaver with my right hand partially out of commission with a (hopefully) temporary condition. It would be even more critical for people with more chronic or permanent conditions than mine, and I believe it's still useful for people with no disabilities whatsoever. Using the mouse for exploration has always been kind of annoying. Also this wasn't in the extension I don't think, but maybe keys to open the map and inventory in the grove?

The nurturing colors were helpful too. I don't have any reading disabilities or anything afaik, but I did notice that I was making fewer mistakes with the colors active. It lets me think less while nurturing, lol. This benefits the site's pets as it can allow people to nurture more quickly and accurately, so more pets can have the chance to get more correct nurtures. Hotkeys for that would also be convenient. I think the extension thread said that idea wasn't allowed, but if by chance that was for fear that people using the extension would have an unfair advantage in contests, then making this an official feature available to everyone would remove that exclusivity. If there were other reasons for disallowing it, then idk.

Perhaps the trade broker thing could be implemented as like one of the search options? Like how in the wardrobe we can filter for items we have or don't have. The extension's solution was obviously still helpful, but I'd hope that an official feature could just remove the items we already have from the search entirely, rather than still having to scroll through pages and pages of results just to find things we don't have yet.

...Also. This was never a thing in either extension, but it's been bothering me for a while, lol. Consistency with what happens when you hit enter, please???? In advanced search, hitting enter from the pet name or player name boxes runs the search, as it should. In certain places, like the fest sculpting iirc, hitting enter when trying to search for a particular player reloads the current page instead of going to the other player's page. In the nurturing grounds player search, hitting enter doesn't do anything at all?? And then the trade broker like, both refreshes itself AND runs the search, so at least the end goal gets accomplished, but it's still kind of strange, haha. I've been meaning to bring this up for a while but kept forgetting, so, here's as good a place as any, I suppose. :P

And yeah, the autofill release names and the view pets as adults things have also been pretty nice to have.

As far as region chat size - again, I don't have any visual or reading disabilities, but chat is TINY lol. When it's very very active, like during fests, it can be very hard to keep up with such a small space. Idk how to solve this as there's not much room in the exploration layout to expand chat, but like. Maybe a chat popout? Or allowing chat to expand sideways, splitting the space more evenly with the exploration log box thing? *shrug*

All in all I do appreciate Krin's willingness to consider adding these things. <3 (for anyone who didn't see my post in the other thread, he told me in a pm that he would like to make some features of the extension official parts of the site, so at least some of the things mentioned here are likely to be implemented at some point) I'd love to see this site becoming more accessible, both for everyone's general convenience and for the sake of disabled players. Even little changes can make a big difference sometimes.

edit: dang it autocorrect xD

Editing again to add that some colored text on this site can be really hard to read. Like when there's red text on the blue MotD, or the black text on a full HP or EXP bar. This might be less important than the functionality of gameplay, but it's still worth mentioning for consideration.

Hotkeys everywhere they are viable would be amazing. It's such a good quality of life for battle/exploration to keep up the pace, but it would be really amazing if stuff like nurturing and festival sylesti building could be navigated by keyboard instead of mouse. I've had to give up the big daily reward this event and previous festivals entirely because clicking to do 800 nurtures (or similar tasks) strains my wrist and could push me over the edge of RSI. If I'm struggling, there must be others who are totally blocked out of the feature, because I'm not someone who has particular accessibility needs.

The extension feature I miss most though, to get back on the original topic, is having an option to display the hidden traits and their names from a pet's profile. Going to the generator to investigate is a hassle.
I also did like seeing hatchlings as adults, but that wasn't providing any functional benefit and just let me see where I was at with projects visually sooner.

quick edit: after the hatchery update I'm hopeful that most of the things mentioned here, and similar features, can and will be rolled out over time as various pages get updated

I definitely agree with the colour-coded nurturing buttons, the auto-fill for releasing pets, and the ability to quickly tell if you have the avi item, it's shocking how much I have been relied on it recently. Also I think the extra hot keys were very useful in the LG and temple.

That said I think the most important thing is the colour-coded nurturing buttons-I really think this would be the best place to start

Really glad Krin is thinking of making some of these permanent since I was considering trying to make a new extension (and I'm very very bad at coding, so it would take me a while-and thats with help from my sister who is really good lol)

Yeah, I was also thinking of attempting an extension haha and that would definitely be difficult for me. I have a fair bit of experience writing my own code in isolation, but writing code to interact with someone else's existing site is a whole different ballgame. But hopefully that won't be necessary since it sounds like Krin is going to be working on implementing some of this stuff himself (:

I also would like the nurture colors, hotkeys, and autofill!

Never been too big on nurturing, but having the color options was really nice. I would also love nurture hotkeys, though I understand if that's maybe too hard to code.

Exactly lol, I was very happy to hear that XD

I may come back with a more in depth reply but big support for this.

Thanks! (:

If you have more ideas, I'd be happy to hear!

Thank you Krin for implementing the randomise traits feature and the hotkeys! And thank you for making the hotkey letters green instead of yellow haha. Just thought I'd let you know that the hotkey letters partially obscure the words on some buttons, at least the way the page displays on my machine. I use Chrome on a 2019 Macbook Air if that's relevant.

The hotkeys obscure some buttons on my screen too, as shown above, and I'm using Firefox on a laptop.

Also, some of the task interactions in the forest area still do not have hotkeys attached:
