Stocking Warehouses

Postby ChaIbaud » Thu May 25, 2017 11:58 am

In the days of recency, suggestions have been made whether seriously or jokingly suggesting automatic game functions that would mean that a certain task loses the difficulty the game has deemed fit for it (cough guluere cough). I feel that this proposal, however, stands out because it is not a game-changing mechanic capable of mobilizing hundreds of fleets within seconds.

If you have ships or are buying warehouse resources and run out of space, you know how annoying it is. I suggest that you can go into the warehouse at each port and there be an option to auto-upgrade the warehouse (perhaps to a certain level) as you attempt to store goods in the port or buy them so you don't have to level it up trying to quickly stock up resources or whatever your task may be.

The part I need judgement on is if this feature is implemented, will you have to risk buying the level and getting low on gold or should there be a setting within this that could set a gold reserve to stop buying levels whenever it reaches and/or goes below a certain limit.

Feedback is appreciated :PP
PM me any complaints (10M gold coin wire fee is mandatory).

There are 10,426 posts in Suggestions thread.
There are 5,849 posts in General Discussion thread.
There are 4,578 posts in Voodoo Cards thread.
That's a total of about 21,000 posts.

Your suggestion has probably been brought before (more or less) and it mostly fits in the mini-requests topic. It certainly does not deserve a whole topic by itself and it would be best if you kept the suggestion as minimal as possible, skipping for the specific idea the explanation on why this is needed - as the suggestion itself, speaks it.

Also, what you request has the prospect of limited usage, it covers something that can already happen and it will most probably will be difficult to understand and use for most. All this, added that it would take about a full day of development time (mostly because the interface for such would be challenging), it would give in this idea a really low priority so it would be mostly better to be fitted into the small-requests topic.

Please, do not take this personal. I am just using this post as a perfect example to take the suggestions from the playerbase a step further. It is humanly impossible for the small team we have here, to utilize your (playerbase) suggestions and move forward without organizing you first in a better way.

May be if there is like a main thread per topic it will help with this. For example: Warhouse thread, Trade route thread, Resources thread, Ships thread, Nation thread, ...etc.

The mini requests topic works better for us. Once many requests are pilled there, it is easier for us to forward them. We have had success with this style so far.

Also, to be fair, there has been tremendous improvement to the quality of suggestions. We just need to keep improving.
