[Discuss] Suggestion to resource trading (roid initing and others)

[Ali]

[15:37] <Ali> i have a suggestion
[15:38] <Ali> in any field you have to type numbers like donating resources
[15:38] <Ali> initing roids
[15:38] <Ali> trading funds
[15:38] <Ali> you should be able to put a "*" and it should equal the maximum
[15:38] <Ali> * metal to crystal (exchange)
[15:38] <Ali> and bam it does all your metal
[15:39] <Ali> or the exact (calculated) metal to crystal needed to do the most
[15:39] <Ali> like if their is 1000 crystal it will trade 1053 metal for crystal or hatever
[15:40] <Appoco[BUSY]> that'd becool actually Ali
[15:40] <Appoco[BUSY]> suggestion forum it

there have been many times that I experienced in R13 where that would have been a very useful idea...

you do realise you can just enter 99999999999999999999999999999999999999 and then it produces the max number in production screen, dunno if it works on mining or not.

TBH cant see the need for it on mining screen, cos if you are trying to make the most ships for your money and such you need to work it out and change it for exact amounts, i may be missing something and it sounds easy to do tho so why not

Because if your trying to trade with the gal fund, using surplus resources gives you the message 'the galaxy fund does not have this much m/c/e'

[bwtmc]

Even when you're not actually trading excess resources but trading what should actually work.. that annoyed me a fair bit :\

So there's 1million Crystal in the fund, and you want to trade 1.05 Mil Metal for it. For some reason you couldn't do a straight trade because "there's not enough Crystal in the galaxy fund." You had to trade (at most) 1million metal, then do another trade to trade the last 50,000 Metal.

That should probably be fixed too.

hehe I do something like that for production to just good old 100000 and thats it just felt weird having mney left just buyin harpys in havoc

But as for the general idea might be nice to just be able to swap all resources with lil press of a button or lil typing of something does ym head in copying pasting and deleting the ,,,,,
