Provision House & Barracks Suggestion

I would like to see the following changes to the provision house & barracks:

Right now we can only make so many of an item and have to do it again. You know how long it takes some players to que a full day worth of items? Way too long espiecally if it's anything like fish/meat deposits that most players have to do.

I would like it to also tell us how long amount of items take to long to build. For example, how many 32 soldiers can take to train compared to 15 soldiers. Etc.

Yes, I know this idea has been thought of before or has been said on global. But I couldn't find a post about it.

The reason you cannot find any posts on it is because we gave up asking for it. Been asking for larger amounts since the dawn of time. Instead of having an "item" limit such as 25, just set it to not being able to queue up more than 12 or 24 hours worth of stuff.

The biggest problem is getting locked into a production and realizing you need to produce something else fast. Like a quest daily or something.

What we need is a Cancel Button to cancel the current production. You get to keep what you already produced but cancel the remaining unproduced items.

I think we should also have a rotate on production like with building so you move it up in the production list

I'm aware that people gave up asking. But it never hurts to ask or re-recommend it after people gave up on it.

ACTUALLY.

I think instead of a Max button. It automatically Starts off to the far right (maximum possible).

And then you can slide the bar to be less if you want.

This way the Max button is not needed and you only have to click okay. (1 click step) instead of 2clicks. (hitting max and hitting okay).

If you know what I mean ?

This is the BEST way to produce things quickly with just one click. Select your buff item or unit type. It auto maxes out for you. and you hit okay.

If you don't like the max, you can change the slider to where you want it.

Please thumbs up for this suggestion I just made. :-)

The could also have a "check box that that lets us enable or disable auto max." So by default it is unchecked for new players who start out and don't understand. "if they 'check it' it saves and remembers your option for always max".

I agree, the slider bar should be gone and we can type in how many we want of what. As is its a pain.

Perhaps the best way to deal with this would be new buildings, which they seem to be into currently.

How about an additional barrack like building that only makes recruits, but can make batches of 100xlevel of building?

when making anything in the Prove please ad an additional menu that allows the player to make
Multiples. Example: I want to make a 2500 Musk, then allow a new menu so I can slide how many
2500's. This will be excellent for Large orders in the Prov.

Is easy enough to just delete what you have queued up (resources return to your storage)... do it all the time for the guild quest that calls for making golden mugs....

I can see this one being a good idea.

Um. I disagree. Sometimes new buildings aren't the answer. I know personally I'm running out of room on my island. I'm sure others are. Unless they plan to make it where we can have multiple islands to control or make our island bigger. I'm becoming more selective on what I build.

Have you ever had to cancel like 30 orders you made like 4 hrs ago? And you know it will take about 5 min to cancel all of them (or less) and then takes 5-10 min to reque the provision house properly. Many of us provision the provision house once every 24 hrs because its time consuming to do so.

Resources do NOT return to your storages if it overflows. Have you ever tried to cancel troops building and then you buy new weapons and/or you made new ones and your store house is full? If you cancel something they DO NOT go to your store house or the star menu if you're full. They totally disappear and you lose them.

Unlike the Trade Office, if you cancel the item, and you're full it does overflow into your star menu.

And as Ezequiel_Sarkar - canceling sucks. It takes a bit of effort to cancel stuff and then have to recreate stuff. why on earth did they not put in a up arrow and down arrow like they do for building queues so you can move things up the chain or to the top. "move to top of queue button" would be useful.

Oh I know Ron. That's why I refuse to cancel now. I run my provision house 24/7. I reque it daily and that's the only time I do it. If a guild quest comes up I que it at the end of it. But thankfully mine ends 4 hrs after maintaince so it's never bad.
