Select Tool shows total ink selected
Syntael
Pretty simple request. As creators we're always trying to optimize our ink usage which means we constantly need to check how much something costs. Normally we just clone something then delete it, or delete it, then undo, or use the invention tool. It would be much easier if the maker pen displayed the total ink of all selected objects any time the select tool is in use.

See Ink usage of an object in the configure menu

I want to be able to see the Ink usage of an object in the configure menu. or in a way simular way to this, because right now to see how much ink something takes up, you have to save it as an invention which can take up time that can be save easily with this quality of life improvement

How about when you select/edit it instead, I use select and edit way more than configure if the purpose of this is to speed up finding the usage of ink, that should be how it should be done

This would be nice, also having the ink bar be split into cpu / gpu

Couldn't you just use quick maths?

@SuperBananaman: Yeah but for something like a quick build or not it would be easier insteand of having spawn it in and see how much it costs

With like a pricetag looking thing at the bottom

This would be so useful for new players so they can learn how to manage the ink!

I made a map that resulted in a looong list of objects (a couple hundred). It went to 80% ink, and I didn't have a good idea of HOW I got to 80% (I didn't realize we are required to keep an external spreadsheet of our ink costs). So, I was forced to make a copy and start deleting families of objects, recording each ink cost as I got down to 0%.
We
should
be able to see ink cost for every object selected, and it be displayed automatically in a HUD.Load More
