"Outcome" counter for same litter pets *Poll added*

Postby Friendlyflyer » Sun May 16, 2021 3:27 pm

(If this was a declined suggestion/has already been posted please delete)

I noticed some of the pet designs in certain litter outcomes are very similar in color and design. I think it would be beneficial to have something under the pet's information when you click on the pet that says something along the lines of "outcome 1", "outcome 2", etc. That way pets that are similar in appearance from the same litter can be easily distinguished and you don't accidentally end up trading away a pet you would've otherwise kept.

For example, I have difficulties distinguishing between these littermates:

Adding this feature would also make it easier for people to discuss pets that don't have specific names.

edit: I would also like to add that I have slight color vision deficiencies and adding this would make it easier for me to see outcome differences for pets that don't have distinguishable features :)

Yes, I use the thread often! What I'm talking about involves distinguishing the differences between the outcomes. As shown above, some pets are very similar so even though they are both added to the outcome thread, it can be difficult to tell them apart. It becomes even more difficult if you do not check growth every day and keep track of what days certain pets grew up.

I hope I am articulating what I'm trying to say effectively, if not I'm really sorry!!

I support this.
Even with the outcome thread I still can't tell them apart especially in my groups.

I actually traded off one of my recent Easter chicks coz of this problem

{support. I'm actually having the exact issue with that very litter-- I want to keep one of each outcome and break up the rest of my old hoard, but I can just barely tell the outcomes apart. This sounds like a really useful feature to have.}

Support. I’ve had this issue since even the beginning litters of CS in 09. I can have trouble distinguishing them and have traded some outcomes away because of it.

Support! I have occasionally had to pull up two pets on separate tabs and rapidly switch between tabs to see if anything about the picture changes. I can only imagine how tough it must be for people like OP whose colour vision is compromised!
I like bananas. Bananas are good.

support!! ever since i've joined cs, i've had issues with determining the differences between litters of similar-looking pets; sure, i can figure it out after a bunch of cross-referencing and double-checking, but having an easier way to tell littermates apart would be really helpful!
