Lose the new all tab in town!

Bumping this up. Playing town has become a chore since the last update. IMHO the new tab is totally useless. The way it worked 2 updates before (sorted by number of buildings) was way better. IMHO having the same sort option plus sort by type and status would cover all the bases.

If it's impossible to resolve without a major update then at minimum make it stay on Idle (or last opened) tab instead of the useless All tab.

I agree with most of SmallChange's - I like the 'All' tab but think it should be in the last position

We just need to tap on the shopper and have the shops they want & the send away option right there.
See Visitor is *completely* unnecessary.

Lets have the visitors list more or less as it is, but on the same line as the name:-
Clickable icons for each shop they are intending to visit (so they can be sent directly to the shop)
an icon to show if they would visit the sanctuary (if fully served)
a clickable icon for the train so they can be sent away

This needs to be made into a board like on the farm.

showing the character, name and what they want 3/(number available) tomatoes, 2/(number available) lettuces, 2/(mumber available) bread, etc? ... tickbox to serve?

selectable (by character type is also good)

People can still tap on each shopper if they really want to.
Facility to tap on all of one character & collect those only.

---

I would like to have icons similar to those proposed for 'Idle'
Clickable icons for remaining shops - click to collect reward, then send to next shop
Clickable icon to collect reward and send to train (via sanctuary) if fully served or to idle if not fully served

Get rid of it and use the tab for ‘Characters’

useful to see what people want next, if neighbours ask

EXACTLY as it was before UI.


Plus some ‘totals’ such as how many in ‘Ready’, how many of each character etc.

also stop the sudden jump when at the end of the table within the tab and scrolling - it's horrible

I hate the All tab. I used to love playing town, but now it’s a chore! I play it less often and starting to lose interest in the game because it’s clear that SC doesn’t care because enough people talk with their wallets. So why would SC care?

The All tab needs to go. Sorting in each tab should be by time and all those leaving should be at the end.

Its sad that they can’t fix anything without a ‘major’ update. Once again, they don’t care and they can do this because they have your money. I’ve also sent them an in game message and I’ll be expecting the same lame answer about how amazing my farm is and how high my level is blah blah blah.... and thanks for letting them know. I knew they never tested the changes before updates... it’s even more obvious now.

In addition to the problems that others have mentioned with the All tab, I find it annoying that it includes all the visitors who have been served and released and are going home or waiting for a train. I can’t see how that’s useful, and having those people there makes it harder to see who’s actually in the town.

My vote is to have the All tab removed, but if SC won’t do that, I hope they can improve it. Although I don’t like it, there are some things I do in town where using the All tab is less cumbersome than constantly going to the tab I want (usually the Idle tab) and being forced back to the All tab every time. Those tasks would be much easier if the Idle tab were the default, but I’m doing the best with what I have to work with—and right now that includes the All tab, with all its drawbacks.
