[Concluded] A Trader's Wishlist

Here I want to list features and interface improvements that would improve things for traders.

1) *new* (***IMPLEMENTED***) Stealing Gold Bars by plundering a fleet.
When Gold Bars are being transported it would 100% make sense that your fleet could be plundered and Gold Bars stolen. If I make a combat fleet with 500 cargo I could steal 500 Gold Bars which would sell for 1Million gold if they are 2,000 gold each. This would be easier if there was a way to figure out what kind of cargo a ship is carrying...

2) *new* (***IMPLEMENTED***)BANKS!
Want Banks so much.... Is this one of the features your team is currently working on?

3) (***POSTPONED****)Mass loading of goods (without trade route)
Load as many resources on one fleet as possible without using a trade route to do so

4) (***IMPLEMENTED***) Mass Unloading of goods into a port
. . .This means having a button to unload as much cargo out of your docked fleets and into the warehouse as possible. Currently unloading is done to individual ships.

5) (PROBABLY REJECTED) Treasure Galleon
Expensive, large trade ship.

6) (***IMPLEMENTED***) 4-port trade routes!
More options for trading:

7) (***IMPLEMENTED***) Instruct a trade fleet to wait between trips

8) (***IMPLEMENTED***) More decimal places on a few numbers

9) (***IMPLEMENTED***) Store goods in both Port 1 and Port 2

Is that what they're called? Then I hate radio buttons. Uh, is that the little bubble I have to put a dot in? If not then oops.

Anyway I'd like to second and third this motion (I think) and further request that the unload all ships option on the warehouse screen take on a purpose that satisfies the players.

I liked Skyhawk's Pirate's Wishlist so I thought I would make one as well.

EDIT: See this SUMMARY on the next page:

unless you want to trade your way to the port that you really want to start your trade route from. Then you don't have to go through possibly 2 or 3 trade route changes on the way to your final trade route. Besides lazy is fun!

Self explanatory: Have "Store in Port 2" as an option in Auto-trading, in the same fashion as "Store in Port 1"
