Currently, the Inventory Menu Pop-up Box is divided into 5 categories as follows:
Star = All Rewards
House= Buildings
4 Squares = Consumable Items
Triangles = Goods
Castle = Great Buildings
When looking in Inventory for a particular “Type” of building to satisfy a Quest requirement, there is not an easily visible way to determine what Building type an inventory building falls into without going into WIKI and looking a particular building up.
This is very time consuming and it would help players a great deal to be able to see an Inventory Building Type classification via an ICON on the building. description menu.
Special Buildings when received from Special Events are placed into Inventory and not into the Building Menu which makes specific “Types” of buildings hard to find without having to look them up.

During events when Event Quests ask us to build xx decorations or xx cultural buildings or xx supply buildings there is no way to search our inventories for items by Building “TYPE” only by “NAME”. Since special buildings are placed into inventory, one has to look through the entire inventory to find a cultural, decoration or supply special building that might be used to satisfy the quest and then look up that building in WIKI to determine what “TYPE” it is. This is very time consuming and therefore I am proposing the following:
1. Add a “visible” Building Type ICON designation to all buildings in inventory so as to easily identify them as Houses. Supply, Goods, Cultural, Decoration or Military.
AND
2. Provide the ability to “Search” inventory based on these Building Type designations.
If this type of search capability is not feasible then I would suggest either:
1. Adding a sub-category to the Inventory Pop-up Box under the House/Building icon that further divides the contents into the following:
House ICON = Buildings
Houses
Cultural Buildings
Supply Buildings
Decorations
OR
2. Adding the additional categories to the main category header as follows:
Star = All Rewards
House = Buildings
*ICON = Cultural Buildings
ICON = Supply Buildings
ICON = Decorations
4 Squares = Consumable Items
Triangles = Goods
Castle = Great Buildings
*The ICONS used here can be the same as the ones used on the Building Menu pop-up to avoid confusion
- Balance
- There would be no change to Balance as there is already an ICON on the individual Building description pop-up menu to the left of the ERA/AGE Name which can easily be replaced by the House, Cultural, Decoration, etc ICON
- Abuse Prevention
- There are no Abuse concerns
- Summary
-
Adding the Building Type ICON to the Building Description as seen in the visual aides will greatly enhance the players ability to locate a specific building in Inventory without having to know the name of the building.
Adding the additional search capability will further enhance the players ability to locate an Inventory building by “Type” when searching for a building that will satisfy a quest requirement.
