(numbers are just examples)
If u check it or adjust the slider the automatic is disabled
If u adjust the min sellprice to 30, the automatic limit the max buy to 29 (minsellprice-1) and vice versa
(If u just adjust one Amount, the automatic limit the other)
If u click the "%" Icon u could switch between % or total m³(or cr) (like shown at the 2nd part)
How it should work in detail: if i limit it to sell stuff at storage >80% it should start with the max (50cr) and if it reaches 100% it should be at the min (30cr) same with buy (max buy at 0%, min buy at 50%)
The gap created between buy up to 50% and sell if higher than 80% could be used:
-with the option "allow own delivery" so your own ships could restock it first (at the min buyprice) before the stations try to buy it random (if it is a warehouse or a intermediate with negative balance)
-to set a buffer if it is a intermediate with positive balance
If u check "set for all" the positions of the sliders will be c&p not the numbers ofc
If u adjust any ware at the station with that option checked, it will be unchecked to allow accurate adjustments (could be checked again if wanted)
Broadcast to all stations just broadcast the checked on (may could be more specific with other options? XD )
The "set storage" option would take all goods of the station into account, maybe could be another option to empty the storage settings but it should automatic stick to a mimimum if it is a resource/intermediate (amount of some cycles) but products could be set to 0 (would stop the production)
maybe do the steps we could set at amount needed/produced per cycle
Maybe there could also a "confirm" option but i think like it is at XR now with "back" and "ok" should be fine (or add a option at options for security check
)ofc resources would only use the buy options and products the sell stuff (warehouse/intermediates both)
I rly like it to micromanage some of my stations...but also like to macro em all
And if u don't want that at all, just let the manager auto it
(Could also merge the buy and sell slider into one (buy at the bottom) and just do inputbox for each storage setting but maybe...there is also a use for the greyed out boxes)
And im sure i forgot something...
