Petition ID 5785: A Backpack/Bandolier Suggestion for Text Readers
Submitted Wed, 24 Apr 24 16:16:40 +0000

Hamzamamood is a sightless player whose queries in Banter end up suggesting ways in which the text reader interface might be made more user-friendly.

Their latest question was about the Equip button in the backpack. From Hamza's PoV, nothing much happens after clicking "Equip", possibly because the connection between "Equip" and the "How many" textbox isn't immediately apparent in a text reader, and the way it currently works is: after clicking Equip, nothing happens until the user specifies how many.

One possible solution to make things easier for text readers is to have the Equip button go ahead and move one of a backpack item into the bandolier. The sightless player can click Equip multiple times if necessary (which may be quicker and easier for them), while the sighted player still has the recourse of using the text box or scrolling list.
