Currently, the white markings filter works based on separate terms referring to the outward appearance for each ws-gene.

I would like to preserve the marking-oriented search, but it would be nice if the "intensity" of these genes could be filtered for in one big group; for example, if I wanted to see all the different iterations of the albino phenotype/marking at once.

I'm proposing the use of the genetic numbers 1-10 and "none" as (extra) filtering options. For example, selecting "white spotting intensity: 6" would display not-cats with the Classic Bicolor, True Piebald, Left Bicolor, Right Bicolor, and Snowmelt phenotypes - but leave out any cats with NNx6 white spotting. This would preserve the secrecy (for lack of a better term) of the cat's genetic string whilst allowing multiple varieties of the gene to be viewed at once.

For clarity, the white spotting filter having options for each individual phenotype is cluttered, but still nice to have, so these new options would be extra; preferably easy to access at the top of the list or as a seperate filtering box.

I like the idea of being able to group the types of white spotting you are looking for but i think having it grouped into the different types would be better, like looking at all inverse options ect.

This is another good suggestion. Anything to search for small groups of WS cats would be better than the all-or-single search system we have right now.

Yeah, what happened here was that I forgot to update the recruit board entirely for the new white markings, so when they released it was broken and unable to even display the new markings. What we have now is the "quick fix" to make it so that it is able to display what markings cats have at all, but it's not really how I'd like it to end up being.

It was never intended to be like this, so this is already on the list of bugs. The changes to fix it more can't be made live unfortunately.
