Directory sections: filters you can see, and a list view
The three big lists in the directory are vessels, airframes and aircraft types. Until today their filters were a row of dropdowns. To find out how many tankers or epic types were in there you had to pick one and count the cards.
The filters now show you the answer before you click.
The bar at the top
Each section opens with a coloured bar split by what the list is made of. Vessels split by category (cargo, tanker, passenger, tug and so on), aircraft types by class (wide-body, narrow-body, regional jet, turboprop, helicopter), and airframes by the types players have caught most. Under the bar every part has its name and a count.
Click a part of the bar, or its name, and the list keeps only that. Click it again to go back to everything. On airframes the six most caught types get their own colour and the rest share one grey "Other" part. To pick one of those, use the Type filter.
Tier chips
Under the controls sits a row of chips, one per rarity tier, each with its count and colour. "All" shows how many rows the other filters leave. The counts follow those filters: pick tankers and the chips count tankers only. A tier with nothing in it is not shown, so a chip never leads to an empty page.
What you have on
Every active filter now shows as a pill above the list: the search text, the category, the tier, the flag, the builder. Tap the cross on a pill to drop that one filter and keep the rest. "Clear filters" next to the count still drops them all.
Cards or list
A Cards/List switch sits next to the sort. The list view is a table with a small preview (the photo, or the outline of the ship or aircraft when there is no photo) and the columns that matter for that section: category, flag, length, builder, tier, catches and when it was last caught for vessels; type, airline and tier for airframes; builder, class, tier and how many airframes the network has heard and players have caught for types. It fits much more on a screen when you are scanning for one thing.
The choice goes into the address like the filters, so a link to a list opens as a list. Switching does not reset how far you have scrolled.
On a phone
The grid stays at two columns. The bar's legend and the tier chips scroll sideways instead of stacking into a wall of buttons. The less used filters (flag and builder, or builder, class and engines for types) sit behind a "Filters" button with a count, which opens a sheet from the bottom of the screen. The list view drops its less important columns on a narrow screen so it fits without sideways scrolling.
Nothing changed for search engines. Every section still lists all of its rows as plain links in the page itself, and there are no new addresses.
Next: the airlines page gets logos and codes.
