some goals are missing information like i was doing the bucket goal that said smth like "Get 6 unique bucket types" and i didnt know it was at the same time so i got each one seperately and thought it was bugged

edit: if it clogs the goal text too much then you could put detailed info on the website probably

all of them are obtain at the same time, workstations, seeds, and buckets as well

also is campfire can it be done with 4 same foods or only unique
Tacomonster

extra info would just clog the text box and make it hard to read the goal
Tacomonster

anything
Elag422
Elag422OP6 days ago
ok
Elag422
Elag422OP6 days ago
from the two people I’ve seen do that goal, both times it was thought it was unique
Elag422
Elag422OP6 days ago
and both times it wasted a couple minutes

this would be something to write on the website but not in the game
Elag422
Elag422OP6 days ago
is there detailed stuff on the website?
Tacomonster
Tacomonster6 days ago
dont think so
Elag422
Elag422OP6 days ago
ok then I could suggest that also
Tacomonster
Tacomonster6 days ago

Tacomonster

i mean yeah for the wiki it would be cool to have additional notes on some goals, i know people in feinbergs chat ask the same questions lol

well I died trying to get a 4th unique food and lost the goal and then I was watching reignex stream and they spent a couple minutes getting unique
Tacomonster

I just watched the first person I saw playing draft out

I guess most of these mistakes are just fail once and then learn and then not make the mistake again

a workaround to enable extra details could be to hold shift while hovering a goal to show an extended description

i think this could work for default descriptions that could potentially cause confusion or that are not explanatory enough. Things like explicitly stating that certain items need to all be presently in your inventory to get the goal

something like this where you can hold shift or click the objective or something would be the best solution imo. doesn't add clutter for those that don't need it, but still makes it easy to learn by just playing the game

regardless there should be more detail on the wiki too though, like https://minecraft.wiki/w/Advancement#List_of_advancements has a table with icon, advancenemt name, in-game description, and "actual requirements (if different)"

Omg i thought campfire was unique this whole time because it is in the icon 😭 no wonder my opp gets it so fast

and I guess less so pertaining to the idea and more so the implementation, but a one time shown tip being like "hey! press shift on me to see more!" would also be cool, just so people know it's a thing

or i guess any other visual indication

I think that as draftout continues to exist some of this will become innate knowledge (if it says “obtain” it must be all at the same time, if it doesn’t say “unique” it isn’t unique, etc.). Regardless, a “Shift for More Info” feature would be great. (Maybe it can show the prompt in gray text below the main text?)
