Summary0002897: Mechanism list not sorted when linking building to a lever
DescriptionI'm not sure if this is technically more of a bug or a feature request. I think it is a bug because it is a major inconsistency with the rest of the interface, but I suppose you could also consider it a feature request. Anyway, when you are a linking a lever to a door, gate, etc, the list of mechanisms to use is unsorted. In all other interfaces I can see, material selection lists are sorted by distance. What this means is that if you have a small stockpile of mechanisms near the device you want to link, it is nearly impossible to select these specific mechanisms out of a long list.
Steps To ReproduceCreate some mechanisms, try to link a lever to a door, floodgate, hatch, or other building.

Yeah, this isn't a bug per se. It might make a good suggestion though: http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?board=5.0 [^]
