Interface Improvement Suggestions

It would be nice if we could change the duration of a research without first terminating it.

When acquiring a technology from other companies, there should be a way to sort the list by alphabetic order. For example:

Apparel
Beverage
Cosmetics
Drugs...

Sometimes I Want to see the technology only for drugs products but I need to find them one by one on the list.

By the way, I think better sorting methods could be applied in many cases in this game.

I would like to be able to change text color if possible. Mainly the minimap buttons to white. I wouldn't mind being able to change the gold colored rectangle buttons as well.

1. Can you enable "Relocate firm" for other cities? It saves a lot of clicking.
2. In the "Product Details" screen the "Apply price to all" used to have a shortcut (the "A" key). Can we have that back please!

Well, there are plenty other letters on the keyboard.

Which key would you suggest? Most keys are used actually. The current shortcut key list: https://www.capitalismlab.com/shortcut-keys/

Z would be pretty comfortable for such contextual actions.

I'd also suggest it for "Relocate and demolish" (currently ctrl+x) and then, when that window opens
for "Duplicate firm" when it's a normal building or
for "Duplicate in mall" when it is a mall store.

That would make the most common actions very fast.

Only because you guys are already halfway there..... Giving the factory product container (window display) it's own background image could look pretty cool. I don't even know where the R&D one is but anyway...

Subject: Feature Idea: Creating a Market Index like the S&P 500

Hey David,

I have a suggestion for the stock market part of the simulation. Would it be possible to create a general market index that reflects the overall state of the market, just like the S&P 500?

I think it would add a lot of value and be very "eye-opening" for the players. I feel like it would make a great surprise for Version 13! Let me know what you think.


Don't you think this is a good idea? A huge number of players love the stock market feature in the game. Don't they check the overall index when picking stocks, exactly like they would in real life? Or am I just the only one craving this?
