Reorganize player "Drag?" textbox
Summary:
change this: to this: Benefits:
I dont know if im the only person who has this problem, but it feels like the interface for taking items off of people is a little spread out. Tightening the display should make it a little better for people when sorting through said items.
Details:
the head objects are on the top of this list, which makes sense. (the shoes get moved to the top of the head if playing ice planet for efficiency)
then next up is the uniform, and its accessories that fall off when you take off the uniform. Finally we put the hands, the backpack and then the (exo)suit slot as the external items you put on last when tossing stuff on your person.
essentially, it should look alot more intuitive.
Implementation :
Look through the code to find the drag/drop hud, copy-pasta code in (what i believe) right order.

But seriously, does uh, anyone know the way out?!

Honestly this makes me generally fill with joy that someone suggested this as it makes popping a thermal mask on someone so much easier or just taking off a facehugger +1 for ease of use.

-1, it'll fuck up with old players brains. Or at least with my brain.

Re: Reorganize player "Drag?" textbox
Bumping, but also with giving a new idea in that, instead of having the box be just a text base interface, we superimpose the players "equipment sprite overlay" box into the UI.
So, when a player drags a person to them to open up there inventory, we just see a mini version of the player equipment sprite and you just click the boxes to pop stuff off/put stuff on. Looks nicer, and i think it wouldnt require that much more effort maybe. This would also make CM ss13 server have a more advanced interface then all the other ss13 servers.
