Resource Overview Production Suggestion

[LiquidFire]

Hello,

Just making a suggestion I thought of as I started tinkering around with the Beta. Figured it would be really nice to have a summary of the overall resource production rates for each resource. So, say I have 5 fir wood cutters, I want to know how much lumber they are producing combined. For fir planks one way this could be done would just include the number (eg. 1 fir plank avg./2mins from 4 sawmills) in the tool tip when a person hovers over the inventory icon at the top of the page. For raw resources like lumber, I'm not sure how it could be done, perhaps a separate resource management screen, or maybe a tooltip via the storehouse? Just would be very nice to get some numbers based on more than one production place. If this is already implemented and I just have yet to find it, I apologize for the useless post.

Cheers,
LF

I was thinking the exact same thing but you beat me to it. It would be great to have a universal resource rate somewhere. Another possible location for this information would be the Mayor's House/Storehouse.

I agree with Salah, this would be nice to have the ability to see in the Mayor's house.

Thanks Arad1, this helps greatly...

In the top menu bar where you see how many of each resources you have it would be nice to see your production per hour, so if I move my mouse over the wood plan it says 12/hour

I agree. It would be nice to just find a screen that lists all the buildings I've build at the minimum, at the maximum it could show the burn rate and have a green or red background if there will be a shortage or surplus.

[Shanksta]

Oh - and a way for me to find all the buildings as well. Maybe click and jump to it? Just like on the building queue where it goes to the queued building. I guess this would just be a stat screen?

Hey Guys,

I think a more robust resources screen is in development by Blue Byte. Not sure on the date it will be launched. But we feel the same way. A consolidated menu would go a long way!

One thing I found and though was weird was the cap on the storage of money, coins. Why is there a limit?
