With the new select all button for buying orders in shares, i think a retract all should be quite necessary, considering in the event of a mistake(like forgetting to click toggle selection), it takes very very long to remove all those orders.

Yes, indeed. First time I used the new system for multiple share orders I didn't notice the check boxes had all been checked and had to retract one by one. Excellent idea Split.

We need a similar capabiliy to cancel pending deliveries. For example, he GM's seem determined to buy Land to sea missles to defend my non-existent coastline from non-existent belligerents (at present). Any month I don't go through and cancel-- I discover I've spent serious SC$ because so many GM orders are at "immediate" prices.

Actually we need a quick and easy way to cancel these orders, and even better a way to prohibit them.

Is there a way to deal with this already?

I think you are getting automatic orders for land sea missiles because you are using them for training. If you get rid of your land sea missile batteries there will be nothing for your men to train on and the demand for the missiles will go away as will the orders for them.

You might want to consider keeping them however. They have a range of 10000 and would be effective against an attack from sea.

It appears it'll save me trouble and $ if I sell these Land to Sea batteries to my enterprise. I'll try that. It'd be much better if I could simply bar "immediate" purchases unless I approved them.

This game has so many "work arounds" that I'm sure a lot of players get frustrated and abandon their game. I think it'd been better if the GM's had worked on making the game more accessible rather than new features such as space stations.

Agreed, with all of the GM talk about "real" world I wonder what the actual cost would be for transporting 4000 attack helicopters in space?
