I'm sure this has been suggested before, but throwing it out there again just in case.
Multiple corporations, most notably the various Maintenance corporations, consume partial units of supplies (e.g. Strategic Maintenance uses 0.06 Nuclear Missiles per month in production). These corporations for the most part can be very valuable, but they also require considerably more micromanaging of supplies especially when contracting.
Obviously I don't know the game's coding and how intensive the change would be, but I suggest being able to contract partial units through common or local market. It would help level out some of the industries that experience massive swings of profit and debt without requiring the constant babysitting that they currently do. |

Also add in an option like "do not buy if "x" number of items in stock. |

@Gondolia - your request already sort of exists.

contracting product fractions will help.
I will discuss here and let you know. |

If you ever do that, also fix the shadow decimal not showing for the Defense weapon maintenance corporation.
I have 100% supplies contracted but I still run into shortages.
The supplie page tells me I have 15 nuclear defence batterie in stock. Right next to that, I read that it consume 1 per month. So my common market buys 1 per month. But 15 NDB, on the same supplier page, only gives me 12.1 months of supplies.
15 in stock - uses 1 per month - 12.1 month in stock.
You see how this is problematic. It should read uses 1.24 NDB per month. If you introduce decimal you might be able to correct this as well.
Thanks a lot! |

Seems like a simple problem to fix but many such changes require changes in our database that are more complex.
this does not mean it will not be done.
we intend to get into these details and fix it. |
