It will be futurely possible. It has been discussed before. I can see the necessity so I will see if we can prioritize this for instant implementation.

In a very quick discussion, we can implement this on priority.
The idea to implement this is probably to put an extra option "Specific Resource" when you choose to offload from warehouse.

In the future, when markets sell more than 1 resource, this option will be expanded to market buy as well.

So, when you choose the Load from Warehouse option, a new list will be displayed where you will pick the resource to move. In case this resource is exhausted, the trade route will resume with the standard resource trading as defined by the main option.

We are working on this right now. The mechanism is now working. We will now implement the interface.

It it truth that the mechanism was completed to 90%. We were waiting to implement this when trading of all resources will become possible in every port. However, we can see uses of this now so no reason to wait anymore.

Love the idea. But what about offloading into the warehouse? Dejanira had the idea before of only selling a portion of a ship's cargo and stockpiling the rest. Would that be art of it too?

There will be no such micromanagement as partial cargo management.

A workaround to such, would be to use multiple fleets.

Editing a trade route already supports resource selection. We are now working on mass edit and then new trade route creation.

Edit and Mass edit should support it normally now. However, we will not publish it to the changelog and we will not activate it for new trade routes.

We will do this tomorrow to allow a few hours of beta testing in live environment. If you notice any issues, post here.
