Add a built in cargo search

Aug 13, 2021 We all float link
Add a way to search for cargo floating in space. Have it built in to the game (sort of like the tractor beam thingy). For simplicity sake, have the searched for item be typed in next to the option to set the keybind.

So, lets say i bound the option to =, and i hit = on the kb, the client would search for a single cargo type that i specified on the options screen.

I realize there were plugins that used to do this, but as far as i can see, they no longer work (for me at least). Targettools used to be my go to.

Hmm. Is there some particular place on a menu where you'd want this? Or is it more of a desire for a /command, that does something like selecting the nearest instance of a cargotype? That would be bind-managable, I guess. Otherwise typing in different things could be annoying.

I mean, there could be some cool interface thing that shows a list of all nearby cargo, with a picker, but that's also more involved to implement.

To keep things simple, a simple /command would be fine.

Otherwise, just placing it down below the tractor beam would be fine.
