I would like to see this change.

I have 800 production plants in my inventory but when I build a new corporation it is purchased on the open market.

Maybe for ceos and not presidents. Allowing that even for ceos only could lead to huge swings in the market and unpredictable consequences. A nice idea but you should think it through. That would also negate the booster that allows you to build 3 corps in one game month so I doubt you'll get that wish regardless.

Hmm, it isn't right though.

He has what amount to concrete pads with industrial framed buildings on them sitting empty. Why should he have to bring foreigners in to build any especially for building state and national corporations?(which should have to come from invintory)

Why would it negate the booster?
If he used the booster all 3 production plants would be depleted from his invintory and if he didn't use the booster than only 1 would... what am I missing here?- unless production plant availability,(3 per month with booster) is what controls our actual ability to build the 3 corps. That seems messed up though, surly there would be a better way of locking us out of building more corps than we're allowed than tweeking how many production plants are allowed to 'flow in'. That doesn't sound right, there's something I'm not seeing.

It screws up your local/common market score

No he says he has 800 production plants.

He wants to be able to create 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, or even 800 corps at once; simply because he has production plants in stock.

Very simple.

I have production plants in my inventory. Why can't I just use one of these when I build a new corporation. I opened new CEO's ON GR and KB. I've built around 90 new corporations in each world and had to buy a new production plant on the open market each time.(When I already had 800 in stock)

Also
Using game boosters, I'm building three corporations per turn. This has nothing to do with building them all at once.

Maestro2000 statement makes sense. If you can't use your own products, there is something wrong. For example: Ford can use their cars to deliver their parts if they want to. It does not make sense when they are forced to buy foreign vehicles to do the job.

Weren't we all crying about reducing clicks? I see this a click reduction. You don't need to manually order and stock production plants knowing full well that they already draw from the open market. If the production plant markets turns red maybe one or more of the 90 corporations you just built need to be production plants. Then the market will be green and you will be able to make 3 corps per month. I don't stock production plants, and I build 3 corps per month just fine. Just another waste of time changing something when there are more important things to do.

Huh? I've never bought a production plant in all my time here... (except for having 3 in each country). I think you'll find that what matters for CEOs is availability of PPs in the country you are building in.
