New Auction Button

I know there is a check box for the Listing of only cards that can be afforded. Can we get a box that allows us to list only cards we don't already own? It would make the lists a lot shorter at times.

Thanks

Good luck with that request... it seems to be kryptonite for these devs

Yes, that is unfortunately very hard to do, as the list is generated by the server, not the client, so it would have to run a lot of checks on thousands of cards which would time out the script on the server.

Might it be possible down the line to separate the 'local' filter from the server search? I.e. generate the list from the ootp server but then have a feature on the local side that could filter the display of that list against the user's collection without sending another request to the server.

I appreciate that it might complicate the UI to make it clear to the user that "show only cards I don't own" filter was not being made on a up-to-date search necessarily, but it would be an invaluable tool, particularly on collection missions.

No, that won't help much, the server can only generate and submit X auctions for the display.
