Is your feature request related to a problem?

Not really sure whether I should say yes or not in this box. The first issue/request is that clusters are not always accurate to how they are in game. I totally understand that it is not possible to get this data reliably, however, an option to select "fill clusters" would be really nice. Every single time I import my guy I need to manually fill out the clusters and it would be great if I could just tick a box somewhere that did that, if I know that I will always have them all allocated. Of course this feature isnt for everyone, its not for every build, thats why it should be a toggle (and obviously voices should just use the fewest points required).

The second is to do with vaal auras, and another toggle request. Every time I import my guy I need to untick every vaal aura and tick every aura manually. Every time... I am literally never only ticking the vaal skill and rarely even ticking it, sometimes I will tick it to see something specific but honestly even that is rare. A toggle to say whether to tick the vaal skills or the regular skills would be amazing. I understand that some skills do only want the vaal skill selected, and for those people they would just leave the box unticked.

A location for these selctions could be in the import dialogue, similar to the delete skills/delete equipment boxes.

Describe the solution you'd like

Selections to define default import behaviour, or specific behaviour per import. A location for these selctions could be in the import dialogue, similar to the delete skills/delete equipment boxes.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Well I tick them manually every time already, its a pain and it adds 30s to every import which can be obnoxious at times, but it does work.

Research direction

Start by tracing the import dialogue and its existing delete-skills and delete-equipment selections. Determine where imported cluster allocation and Vaal-versus-regular skill selection are handled; done means users can configure these defaults per import and the selected behavior is applied consistently.
