Hi,

I am not sure if I had posted this already, so perhaps here it is again:
this concerns a situation in the previous Beta, I had several times created a group of several (4-10) bomber units. When removing the units from the group one by one, the first one always brought back the assets page although the removing worked. Removing the second up to the last bomber unit was flawless - the unit was removed then the general unit tab/page appeared without the removed unit shown in the group.

This said, removing a unit from a group is only possibly individually (one by one) so what would be helpful, because presently several units can be joined to a group at once through a single order, an order to perhaps disband an entire group or to remove several units through a single order would be very welcome - later in the game if using loads of military orders and dispatching, assigning grouping orders should be feasible in batches.

I hope this bug report and suggestion helps.

Hello Dread!

I hope you are well as we quickly approach the Dreaded Day (har). I did a search on the forum for these before posting in case I missed it, and try as I might I couldn't find anything so if it's been addressed or answered already just point me.

1. Would it be possible to add checkboxes next to the Distribution Center Buy/Sell contracts so you could delete multiple at a time instead of clicking them one by one, or is there a feature I'm missing?

2. Would it be possible to add a new Order for units, that would "Phase" older orders out. So lets say I add a set of orders loading it in, and then append those with another set of orders (Love that feature btw!!). The Phase order would remove a single or range of orders from the list, and itself so that the list isn't filled with 20+ orders, with only the last 5 looping. So you could put it just before a loop order, it would run, remove specified order(s) and then continue to the loop.

(EDIT)
3. Has Production Cycles for structures already been discussed? I seem to remember something on it but I wanted to ask about being able to cycle from one product to another on alternating turns. The same as a loop order would work for individual units. If this is purposefully set to one and done so that it doesn't become too automated I totally get it. Have to keep people busy and managing their empire!

Thanks again, loving the game!

This was a bug? My whole opening business plan was based on it.

Step 8 did not work, I did not get the 150K and the upgrade is taking 10 turns instead of 1

Ah yes, thank you, that is it! Just a suggestion to the developer, if there could be a message/note/something could flag up to say this that would be good. Thanks.

I think i can replicate the problem Zip444 had.

I started to upgrade a facility before receiving the cash from step 8 - hey I needed to get some sleep last night.

I came back to the following:

1) My facility had upgraded
2) Step 8 had been cleared (after 10 turns of upgrade)
3) I had now received the money
4) The next upgrade on my facility only took one turn.

So... quirky yes, but you do get all of the bonuses and advantages of step 8 even if you've upgraded a facility before.

When using transported to pickup stuff, their is an option to pickup everything and in quantity all. When you sell there is no sell everything option, it does have quantity all.

Some players have said distribution centers, as a new player, wouldnt it be wise to have a simple sell everything as well?
