Feature request: Upgrade all pickaxes button

[Mixxiphoid]

I have unlocked 130 pickaxes. Upgrading pickaxes takes a lot of time. You have to:
1. Click the pickaxe
2. Click the upgrade button
3. Choose whether you want to upgrade only 1 level or as far as possible
4. Wait for the 4 second animation to finish to continue
If you are quick enough it takes 5 seconds per pickaxe.
130 times 5 second is 11 minutes! Now, let's be fair, I'm not upgrading each of them on each prestiage, but I need to progress so I need to upgrade each at 20 if I don't want to loose slack.

Can we please have button to upgrade all pickaxes which will simply upgrade any pickaxe as long as you have the required materials or picks?

It's the first thing everybody has to experience, me including.

The ingame UI is a nightmare, constant scrolling up/down perhaps is a cool thing for mobile platforms, but not for PC.

When you ascend, the basic pickaxes are reset. And not only you have to buy them again in very inconvenient separate window, called "buy pickaxe", but you have to feel all the pain again by upgrading pickaxes over and over again: switching to them (not possible during power is active) first, then clicking button elsewhere, then switching back to your favorite pickaxe, repeat...

P.S.: I should stop posting in this forum I guess, it's dead. Devs never visit it. Last three pages contains like 10 of my topics, /sigh.

I ascended a week ago, so the pain is quite fresh. It is just too much.

This is part of the reason why I prefer to use the Eye of Ender pickaxe. It'll randomly teleport to the latest biome and get blocks from there.

So when I'm feeling lazier, I'll just sit in the first few biomes for a few hours, then upgrade the Star Core, Clock Gear, or Chronos Lair pickaxe before I reach the biomes. If I'm slightly more active, I'll use the Anvil ability while the Eye of Ender's pickaxe power is running to immediately get enough blocks to upgrade those pickaxes.

Once those pickaxes are upgraded, I don't need to upgrade any other pickaxes (other than Tritium) for the rest of the prestige.

I also use the Eye of Ender pickaxe primarily, but it inherits the damage from the pickaxe with the highest damage. Making progress very slow if you don't upgrade inbetween.

Thanks! Disabled it now, not sure why I hadn't disabled it before, is it new? Anyway, it still takes a lot of time to go through all of time, but this saves some time.
