TOPIC | [Tool] Dragon Search Link Generator
1 2 3 4 5
You ever wish to generate a search link for dragons on the Auction House or the site-wide dragon search? Looking for that dream dragon or dragons to help you in a breeding project?

WELL DO I HAVE GOOD NEWS FOR YOU!

I made a search link generator!
You can copy it HERE!



Can:
  • Generate a link for the Auction House
  • Generate a link for Dragon Search
  • Generate with the menu collapsed or expanded
  • Automatically sorts genes and breeds by rarity
  • Generate with breeds/genes of equal and higher or only higher*
    *Exception being Rare genes/breeds, those ALWAYS generate if your goal includes a Rare gene
  • Colorwheel wrap automatically
  • Work for all ancient breeds


How to Use:
  1. Start by copying the sheet. File -> Make a Copy
  2. Go to the scry that holds your goal dragon.
  3. Click the little image icon under the 'Predict' button OR
    Right click -> Copy Image Address (Chrome)
  4. Paste the image link into the noted box
  5. Click the links! That's it, they're already filled out and updated, lol.


Tips:
  • To start with, please do not use the site-wide search generator to harass people for dragons that look well-loved!
    I use this to help me with projects, but I ALWAYS look for if they are in a fodder/sale tab, if they have no apparel/familiar, and I check the user's profile for if they are okay with inquiries!
    If the dragon looks well loved AND has hatchlings, I feel safe enough about asking if they are willing to host or let me host a breeding with that dragon.
    Otherwise, please acknowledge that the dragon may not be available! It does not hurt to ask, but pestering will more often than not hurt your chances.
  • I have the colors, genes, and breeds sorted very specifically to make it easy to adjust the given search!
    Genes/Breeds are sorted by:
    [Goal Gene]
    [Same Rarity*]
    *If allowed or goal gene is Rare
    [Higher Rarity]
    [etc.]
    So if you want to go higher in the gene rarity, you go to the gene just below the goal gene, and you start clicking away! Should not have to move your mouse to remove as many genes as you want.
    Colors are sorted like:
    [Furthest above to Goal]
    [Goal to Lowest below]
    [Closer above to Goal]
    [Goal to Closer below]
    . . .
    [Closest above to Goal]
    [Goal to Closest below]
    For a similar reason as the above! You can remove either colors above OR below your range to narrow it, and if you want to remove the furthest range, you don't have to move your mouse! Just click twice and it's narrowed.

  • Master sheet back end for the genes to make updating simpler!
    If you want to see it offline, ctrl+c and then ctrl+shift+v to have it stay there! However, updating it will then become a manual thing you will need to do.


Bonus stuff:
  • Has notes to tell you what the front end stuff does!
  • Only two tabs, the front end, and all the info in the back
  • SUPER fast
  • Simple appearance
  • Already sorts newer dragons to the top!

Planned:
  • Ability to type in how far out the colors should be
  • Ability to tell it how big or small to make the steps
  • ????
I don't think I had anything else planned, but I'm absolutely open to suggestions!



I know the forum formatting isn't that glamourous, but I'll spruce it up eventually. Just wanted to post this before I chickened out, lol.

I am also following, so don't worry about pinging me, I'll see your message!
If you'd also rather PM me about any bugs or suggestions, I have no issue with that!
