Feedback: bulldozing lots from main world screen

I thought there was another thread somewhere about this but I can't find it, so I've created a new one (it could have been perhaps only mentioned within another topic). Is it possible to give us the...

    @LadyAofPineapple  - I agree. A Bulldoze button would be a good addition for the Manage Worlds screen.

    Why code a Bulldoze button that's accessible from the Manage Worlds screen?

    • To empty multiple lots without the need to load into each lot.
    • Bypass multiple loading screens.

    The current system to Bulldoze multiple lots:

    Starting from the Manage Worlds screen:

    1. Select Lot > Confirm
    2. Loading Screen...
    3. Bulldoze Lot
    4. Select Manage Worlds
    5. Loading Screen...
    6. Repeat

    OPTION 1: Workaround

    Preparation

    Steps for creating an EMPTY Lot Library

    1. Find the smallest Empty lot (20x15 in Newcrest)
    2. Select Lot > Confirm
    3. Loading Screen...
    4. Save Lot to Library
    5. Exit to Manage Worlds
    6. Loading Screen...

    EDIT: These steps no longer needed

    1. Naming convention is key.
      • Type "Empty" in each title for easy searchability.
      • Example: Empty 30x20
      • Searching for "Empty" will result with all Empty Lot saves to choose for placement.
    2. Repeat for each lot size  EDIT: j/k you only the smallest lot  EDIT: j/k you only need to save the smallest size lot.
      • 15×10 (Sylvan Glade)
      • 20×15
      • 20×20  
      • 30×20
      • 30×30
      • 40x20
      • 40×30
      • 40×40
      • 50×40
      • 50×50
      • 64×64

    Now your Library is ready for any variety of Faux-Bulldoze options to implement from the Manage Worlds screen.

    Placement

    From the Manage Worlds screen:

    1. Open Gallery - F4
    2. Go to your Library
    3. Select a saved "Empty" Lot by size
      Choose Placement option:
      • Place & Edit - One off
      • Place Lot - If placing multiple "Empty" Lots
    4. Select: Place Lot
    5. Choose lot to make "Empty"
    6. Click Confirm
    7. Pop-Up (Furnished or Unfurnished?) > Confirm
    8. Repeat for additional "Bulldozing"

    OPTION 2

    Create a Bulldoze Button clickable from the Manage Worlds screen.

    1. Choose lot
    2. Click Bulldoze

    Which way seems more efficient?

    Personally, I'm all for Option 2.
