Survey: Stopping the home island production

[SSSecretSquirrel]

[For clarification: this is in reply to CoffeeCat's post, suggesting a "START/STOP toggle" functionality for the individual player -- missed to hit the "reply with quote" button.]

1000% YES YES YES & thumbs up for this HIGHLY DESIRABLE & ULTIMATELY USEFUL feature request !!! And a clear NO, NO F****** WAY to BB's *totally_braindead* idea of stopping everything during so called "maintenance periods" (which officially don't exist any more anyway, as various players have already pointed out).

This "START/STOP toggle" could also exist in the form of a Zone Buff. BB seems to love those.

BB proposing stuff and making open discussion and vote is a good thing btw. Hope they keep it up!

Please do not stop production.

But having stackable buffs, suggested by others, is a highly desirable feature. Found myself wishing for it yesterday, in fact, and glad to see it posted above. Many of the shorter buffs have an odd end time, and it would be lovely to add another to it, to extend its buff properties, as it will end during maintenance/sleep/player away from the game times. We can stack premium time, so should be able to stack Gold Fever, Piero's Bowl of Pasta, The Mother Tree Ritual, Roasted Duck and more. It actually might add a financial benefit for the Settler team, encouraging buff purchase from the store. I can see someone going on vacation and wanting to leave their island in perpetual buff mode while they are away.

noway nohow, NO, NO, NO!!!

I'd rather see a full island toggle that we can choose to stop all production if/when we wish. Then those who want it to stop during maintenance can do so, and those who want to continue can also do that. And we can also use it when we know we are going to be away on vacation, or if we suspect we may not have access to the game for an extended period (weather impacting electricity, family/work issues, etc.).

This could be a good option, leave it to the players' choice.

No, please do not do that. I'd prefer my island to remain active during maintenance.

It would throw off way too many buff schedules, geos, and explorers.
It would also negatively affect those 'produce x' quests for timeline. That would be an extra pain during events, especially Crisis.

I'm not entirely sure if this is a great idea.. I like the idea of MOST things not running (mines, quarries, wood production, farms etc), BUT, I DO want bookbinder, prov houses, villages/university, geos and explorers to continue while maintenance is going on. I am not sure if this is doable, or if it's an all or nothing proposition. A bit more clarification would be awesome, please and thank you.
