Yes, this is a MUST, Anno online can merge/stack items, so I don't see why settlers Online can't do the same, for these type of items. In the testing server, there's a whole BUNCH of buffs and stuff like that, and it's hard to cycle through to get what you need or want.Quote:

I had to go thru and check the box beside each and every one of them in order to delete them. And that is for the second time tonight. This is really getting old
and i find it unnecessary to receive these notices. Can't we just be sent ONE email notification that contains a LIST of all the buildings buffed?
I play often, so i can just look around my island and SEE what has been buffed. Other players who don't log on much are the only ones who would need the notifications, really. I like being notified, just not at the expense of having to sit there and deleting every single lousy one of them.
STAR MENU ITEMS - All selected items transfer to the mayors house at the same time. It is very time consuming to move each item individually, one at a time.
Have all kinds of Guild Coin but not really happy with selection of items to get in Market. Please, would like to see buffs for P.House and Mayors House. Love the game ;)
wish I could upgrade Generals. Love the game;)
I would suggest that the current self-buff indicator of rising 'sparklies' is not visually friendly to people with less than ideal eyesight. Especially when the buffs are made in a cluster of buildings that have rising smoke such as cokers, smelters. bakeries or weaponsmiths. My request is that the graphic be changed to the much easier to see 'atomic swirl' of a friend's buff, but have the 'self-buff' version in silver to distinguish between the two.
way back on the first page there was talk of adding wheel barrows and carts to shorten the time the workers are out walking to signify that they are doing more. It's an interesting idea, but how about putting down better and better roads? when a worker is using them they get a 2 or 5% boost in speed at level 1 road instead of roads just being decoration. Workers should seek out to walk on roads because of the boost they give, but still go their own way if it is shorter to not use the roads.
Could the Guild Menu members list show their last login dates? It would help Guild Leaders keep track of who has dropped off the face of the Settlers Universe. Hard to believe but some people just walk away without saying a word. I know.. who would do that?
How about introduce something other than same old guild quests?
Replace the guild quests with a group activity once a week. If Blue Byte needs resources, then the Guild could donate resources (i.e. donate 5,000 stones, etc) as a group (not per individual). If this is done once per week, the Guild can work together to complete. There would be an (option) to donate gems to cover 10% of the resources needed for those who prefer that option.
This would be a big help in managing the guild membership. I'd love to see this.Quote:

All this useless clicking makes this a REAL pain for someone with arthritis, but hey we got achievements, which are bugged already.
For the love of Settlers ... please introduce multi-select capabilities for clearing out star menu.
My biggest pet peeve for a game that I love ... I can't keep up with the click-click-click'ing ... also I would like to know who I try to sue when I develop carpal tunnel ;)
Thank you for your consideration.
"Fantastic Idea" - A unit for elite cavalry = rifleman. It could have same hit points as cavalry but a little more first strike damage. Create an up-gradable building "Rifle Hut" that uses steel and gunpowder to make rifles, which is used to create the unit. Tell me what you think, thank you for your time.
Please don't double post the same message. One is enough.
i have one thing i would like, could the economy overview work a little different than it does. I would like it to display the use of material that are used, and if a plant or work site stopped work (full supply) that it displays that the site is not using goods.
How about allowing us to use carts by turning them into a method of speeding up product transportation. Like a Horse drawn carriage, for example. we could produce them and speed up the time it takes to get materials from the workyard to the storehouse and vice versa.
how about few xp for collecting all collectibles? Would be nice addition for us "not so crazy about adventures" people to gather some points.
oh sorry one more..... any chance for searchable small coal mines refills?
Here is my suggestion - replace the lead designer.
Sorry if someone else already said these things but here is what I would love to see:
1) General bug fixes (I would not care if no new content was introduced for 2-3 months or more if a lot of the bugs could just be fixed in that time to be honest)
2) Barracks slider increased to 250 or 500
3) Star menu overhaul
- Make buffs stack up to 250 or 500
- Make a separate tab for adventures
- Make a separate folder for generals/explorers/geologists in specialists tab
4) Make the resource bar adjustable (Seeing how much stone or pinewood planks I have is kinda useless but seeing how much granite or exotic wood I have would be amazing)
5) Upgradable TO
- Level 2 = 2 FREE slots
- Level 3 = 3 FREE slots
- etc
6) Upgradable Rarity Provision House
7) More recyclers (Coal is used in so many chains it would be nice to be able to buy 1 or 2 more recyclers in shop)
8) Make rewards from previous events available to newer players (A little debatable since it is good to give the long time players a little bonus/edge for their dedication but I would honestly love to be able to go back and get some stuff I missed because I joined later on)
9) Remove the little green bushes (A personal issue here cause they are always getting in my way >:| )
10) Overhaul the economy overview (Again more of a personal issue). My cutters and foresters always go to different trees throughout the day. This makes the production per 12 hrs constantly change (negative occasionally - even though the daily net is always positive) and causes my entire pinewood production chain (and everything else linked with it) to get flagged. Shutting off the flagging system for pine wood tree production (NOT LOGS) would fix this and would be very helpful. Also I do not imagine it would be very hard since hardwood trees/water/wheat fields/deposits are already shut off and do not cause respective chains to be flagged even though they are negative all the time per 12 hrs.
Content updates I would love to see (but only after user friendly updates are done):
1) PVP
2) New unit types. Someone above mentioned an ungraded cavalry unit which would be cool. A tank unit or general with an ability such as "This unit takes damage before all other units" would be cool too.
3) New buffs (2x buffs that lasts 12 hrs or 24 hrs would be amazing)
4) New buildings
5) Island expansion
6) Change the adventures that are available for gems/frags in shop every once in a while. This would add a little challenge and could encourage players to run some of the adventures which are hardly ever run.
Could a new slider bar (?) be put in the barracks ... so when I put in 675 troops and want all recruits ..... We dont have to slide/click for every 25 lot of troops ..... hope that makes sense :)
Trading: Island Store/Merchant/Shop
Building: Trade office building
Function: post up to 5 trade offers in a level-5 trade office (5 lots X's 4 slots)
Trade duration: permanent/while quantities last
Buyers: can buy multiple lots from the same offer listings
Exclusions: loot spots, special buildings, event items
Requirements: active login, level requirement
Additional: ?
This idea is aimed at facilitating communication between guildmates. If a visitor clicked on the Mayor's House - could the Guild Member List 'Note' content for the MH owner be displayed in a pop-up. Using this... members could use their 'Notes' to specify what buffs they'd like - what adventures are wanted/available for trade or co-op playing.
My suggestions to make the game a better place.
1) CORE
Currently the game in a visual mode gets boring for the eye, as every players island i visit is exactly the same visually.
Peopel dont have alot of options to customize their Island, to make if differ from other players islands building the same chains,
stacking the same buildings (farms,watermills,huts etc.)
My Idea would change this and add depth to the game.
Implementing a technology tree that is not a linear achievment to get all the skills, but to choose and upgrade in a specific specialization.
For example: A player that would mainly produce bread to sell could specialize in wheat production from the technology tree that will allow him to
unlock extra buildings and upgrades in that specific chain. (2x faster mills, less water consumation by bakeries, finer grain harvesting by farms, bigger wheatfields , maybe a pastry building that would produce cakes to make stronger buffs etc).
So this way another player that would specialize in lets say Bronze chain would not have the extras in the wheat chain, but he would have extras in Copper chain so if the player wanted he can also still produce bread but not in that quantity and quality a Baker island would.
In overall this would make different islands selecting different specializations look different. I would visit an island and see that, yes this guy is a weaponsmith producer, that guy is in the wood chain etc...
2) User Interface
- Adding a search to friend and guild member list would help alot, since most of us have tons of friends and it gets hard scrolling through them all.
- Hover over building to display production of the building in 12 hours (would help alot in optimizing overall production).
- Adventure tab show troops button (it gets frustrating to have to visit an adventure to see when my troops will arrive or howmany trrops i have currently on the adventure).
- Customization of the Primary resources on top (People have primary resources changing depeneding on their level and specialization.)
- A history tab from adventures that would store an overview of lost troops on specific camps etc...
- A history tab from adventures showing the loot we recieved.
- Increase troop units production limit
Horse training camps where they learn to go from a slow walk to a gallop.
nice suggestions but if you have looked through the 1800 posts before yours you would have seen all have already been ignored by the dev teamQuote:

The game is clearly focused on encouraging cooperation and teamwork. This kind of geologist would be extremely beneficial. I often wish I could find a few marble deposits or iron ore deposits for a friend who will be coming on soon but hasn't made it on yet.
If there is concern about a player who does not want others to find deposits on his/her island, perhaps there could be a setting switch that could be toggled on or off that allowed friends' geologists to explore on his/her island.
for the Star Menu - keep all the Geologists on the Specialists tab; but rename "ALL" to Military and move all the Generals there... for what it's worth!
It would be good if players could swap their daily guild quests so if they have to do an adventure it could be done on a day that suited them.Maybe have a 7 day guild quest window where you could choose which one you did. ?
You need to remove from the inbox the buffing and have a data storage for buffs instead...
So you read: Bob buff you 10201 times with Irma, 3 times with sandwitchs...rather than:
bob buff you
bob buff you
bob buff you
bob buff you
It kills the inbox usefullness, need 1 chart, perhaps expandable if peoples want to see details, perhaps not.
It would be VERY good if the developers realized that the players have had about enough of the collectibles. Two events in a row that solely depend on them, ok, we get the idea. NOW GIVE US SOMETHING NEW TO KILL!
I know it's been mentioned before, but I think it needs to be mentioned again.
Some options for the "online" green dot for friends/guildmates.
Include an option, that gives "Away/Busy" (Yellow Dot), and "Inactive" (red dot)
When a player 'logs on' automatically go green, but let them select that they are "Away/Busy" if they want to be 'unavailable' for whatever reason. And, if they don't do anything for X length of time have it go "Inactive" Red.
just a couple of suggestions
1. a select all option for those of us that have more than 3 generals would be nice for sending troops.
and
2. it's AWESOME that we can name our generals, but when sending troops, it's hard to tell which gen is which unless you click on them... would be nice to know whom is whom just by looking.
Thank you in advance

It would be wonderful, if we could click on our avatar image, and get a menu option to 'return to home island'
idea that might be good to add, like have a training building to make your troops stronger with the use of resources
