Feed all button

There should be a "Feed All" button so you don't have to go through your 1000 pets. If this already exists please tell me!

@miakafire
As much as I would like this option, the EC will be easier to get, and therefore the value will deplete.

However, there is a trick to feeding bigger coves

1) Ctrl+click all the eggs
2) Click the first tab
3) Feed the egg
4) Hit ctrl+w
5) Keep your mouse in the same place (food) and continue clicking then ctrl+w

@miakafire I posted this as well months ago. I would really like this option but with some little changes.

I agree @miakafire I like feeding random people's eggs so if they have a lot (which is more than 30 for me) I'm like, "Oh my gosh, I can't feed them all!!" and I just go to another random person's profile. I agree totally!!!

I agree with @iceiceice
There isn't going to be a way to get this without it having really bad consequences on the Eggconomy.

I know that feeding is a daunting task and it really does take a while to get much EC but it's the EggCave way

I feel like this should at least be an option for your own pets, even if you don't have access to it for everyone else's.

Perhaps a more practical approach would be to add a "hover over" icon so that clicking that little icon feeds the pet rather than just taking you to the pet page. Eliminating the extra steps might be a good compromise here. That way, you still have to click, and it's still going to take time, but at least you're waiting for the page to load for the pertinent action to be counted - not for it to load so that you can perform the pertinent action.

I think this would be a good idea, but maybe there should be a set amount of EC you get from it? It would be a low amount. Or maybe you wouldn't get EC at all? I can't open lots of tabs or my computer freezes, so it's hard for me to feed, and a lot of my mortals die from hunger.

@miakafire YES YES YES YES THIS IS WHAT I WANT XD *slow clap of joy*

I think there SHOULD be a feed all option, but only for your own. I'm very busy with college and I don't have time to feed them all every day. There should be little to no reward for feeding all, so no EC. I'd rather keep them alive without earning EC, that's not what I"m concerned about.

I haven't seen any activity on this for a while, so I am going to reiterate that this should be available for your own creatures at the very least AND suggest a new compromise. What if there was a "Feed All" button on other peoples' Coves but you only got a fraction of the EC for it? Half sounds fair. Of course, if you wanted to complicate things, you could just put it to an algorithm, where the more you "auto feed" the less you get per feed, but while that sounds much more fair to me it also sounds needlessly complicated for the devs to code. At any rate, still hoping for this for my own critters. Lord knows it would be one massive thing less for me to worry about here. XD It would also help people with slower or older computers to at least take care of their own pets.

@miakafire

I've always disagreed with this idea. It defeats the purpose of feeding.

Okay, even with getting only half (or a small amount) of EC, you can feed more coves easily. Therefore there's no real difference. And what about creatures you don't want to be fed? There's no way to skip a creature, unless of course, you're manually feeding ;p
