Your website is huge importance!

Few ideas:

Filter hideout based on small/large map device

Some people prefer small, others big map device.

Filter hideout based on portal colors..

Probably most useful for people who have only certain colors, and if hideout is made in consideration to certain portal color, like green, purple, blue, black..etc..
Of course many hideout decorators ignore portal color at all, but those who fit, make a better job at fitting it.

I've been looking high and low for HO's now to find something that suits me.

I consider myself a practical and efficient man and as thus I'd want my HO to also be practical and efficient.. that is no running back and forth between waypoints, benches, chests etc...

I'd also very much like my HO to look 'nice'. But I don't have a creative bone in my body...


I'd LOVE it if you, or any of the other sites, implemented a filter and/or search function to rate it's usability/efficiency as well as the metrics you already have. That would make it an invaluable tool to me.

Hey!

I get the question. But it's really hard to implement a feature like that. In theory it would be possible to calculate how close some important items in a hideout are together (Bank, Portal, NPCS). But I don't think it will be a 100% accurate way to implement this.

Another option is to add a system to add certain tags to a hideout. But I'll look into it. I was already thinking about adding a tag system.

I don't expect your otherwise awesome site, to automatically index the .hideout files and calculate distances between 'interactables' etc.. although however amazing that would be, I think it would be out of scope for such a site :)

But maybe add, as you say, a predefined 'Tag' (or 'Tags'), that the uploader can add to their hideouts.

This could be color scheme (taking a cue from the previous poster), big or small map device, theme, efficiency etc.

And if you really wanted to go the extra mile.. let users vote (1-5 stars?) on how correct those 'Tags' are..

Let's say HideoutUploader85 has added a tag for "Efficient" because he believes it is, but the users only give it 2 stars.. then it's easier to find as a GenericDownloaderExtraodinaire :)

Just a few things to think about. I really like how far the site has already come, I just think it can be even better... but in the end it all depends on you.

Hi there,

It'd be nice to be able to delete/modify the versions that were published : sometimes a very minor thing has been changed in the hideout and you don't want to make a new version just for that.

Another thing that would be good is to get the possibility to delete a hideout instead of just making it private.

EDIT : As there is no visual loading animation when you upload a hideout and you have to wait some time, some people do the mistake to upload it several times (that's what i did). And now the favour counter displays 2 times the initial favour required (26m instead of 13m).

EDIT#2 : Try to go to my profile (https://hideoutshowcase.com/viewprofile/Synopsis) then click on "uploaded hideouts", you'll either get a crash or you'll see the "good hideout" that i want to share and the other one i've set to private but is still visible. Ideally i'd like to delete it.

Other than that it's a great website, thanks a lot for it !
