When I create a supply unit I have to do ~105 mouse clicks to create EACH unit. I set it to 1 jeep and then I add in ~2000 military supplies and ~1000 fuel. We should be able to create a new default unit like we can for garrisons. I could name mine 'tiny supply unit' and then be able to churn them out in no time.

As it is now I make myself create 3-5 new units for each country (main and slave) each time I log on. SO I have to go through ~1000 clicks of the mouse before I start checking my other country stats.

It makes the game less fun and more like work.

Agreed. John R, if we make a loud enough ruckuss will we get default units quicker? lol

/me tries to recall what is being worked on

Right now, no. But it can get it bumped a few places up the list.

That would be nice. And I only have one country. What a pain to do this much work for an empire.
I do not set so much fuel or supplies for them, and they seem to work just as well.

Also a way to type in exact numbers. Three or four numbers goes much faster than 130 mouse clicks.

The real solution is to make the programmers do the same task 5000 times in a row before they can release it to production.

Hopefully, they will have a bright idea before they get to #5000, then change it and make it less work before they release it to production.

Maybe we could have a monthly vote for the existing feature they have to do 5000 times in a row, in order to motivate them to make that easier too. :)
