If I had to change one thing in this game, just one thing, it would be to add a button that let you pull all your artifacts. To have to click once per artifact is fine when you have just a few thousand AP.

I'm nowhere near the top with 151,000 AP at my max. But that takes 50-75 clicks. I drain my minerals in 2-3 clicks and my research in one. Why make artifacts drop one at a time? There is no sense in it. It takes a lot of time, and is vaguely annoying. And that's with a fast connection.

Please Dan, make a one shot drain your AP button.

The only thing that I would add to this suggestion is an "auto-receive until below ____ points left" option for those of us who don't want to pull shipments below 3k or some other lower threshold.

If I were to quit the game, it wouldnt be because of any rule change or anything like that.

It would be because I am tired of hitting that stupid artifact button.

I have actually lost production more than once because I got bored clearing out my artifacts, switched over to do something else for a break and forgot to go back and finish clearing so my production capped out.

definitely need a lower threshold or it would be kinda bad if some are wasted.
but that might be hard to code, so the simple solution is a receive x5 button, x10 button and x25 button. that outa save ur finger a bit of strain while being relatively easy to code.

i suggested a (pull until the amount is under said number) a while back.
dispite its popularity i dont think dan is going to put this in.
To many people kept complaining that "it would help cheaters", "make it easier for multi counts" so on and so forth :-/

The minimum arti threshold could be a setting in the ship settings tab.

People really complained about this idea before? Wow. I think it's a pretty good one There isn't a huge advantage to be gained by this. It just simplifies things..

Think it'd be useful to have one for mining too so all unlocked minerals get sold with one click.

+1 to having an option in settings to pull all artifacts above an adjustable threshold. It's not a huge deal for me yet, but I can see a future where it'll be really annoying if something like this isn't implemented.

You know what.... make it drain ALL of your points. That would be the downside to automation.

I've worn mice out from repeat clicking. Save me some money, and you'll be more likely to get some more from me, Dan ;p

If a custom lower limit can't be an option, maybe a default of 5k(although a few might prefer 20k)? if u want to go below than u have to do the good old manual clicks
how's that sound?

I'm all for a collect all that stops at 5k. If I really want to burn through the last few collects, I can do that on my own. but when I'm at work using an Iphone? Oy.

Could we also get a button on Mining that just says "Sell All". Click it and it automatically dumps your entire load into cash.

This will be a much needed option, now can we get the option to turn off the are you sure you want to seel this artifact...cause when I got a few hundred artifacts to get rid of its drving me nuts to try and clear them out... In fact I have pretty much stopped collecting artifacts, and just let them sit in my cargo bay unless I adsolutly need to collect artifacts for a mission. I mean do I need to say yess a few hundred times in a row to clear out my inventory? Can we at least get a sell all option and the ability to lock them like the resources... or could we just make it so all the resources have to be sold one by one, with a prompt as well like the artifacts?

few hundreds... this is after you stack? (note, if you enter a quantity in the quantity space in the middle-topish part of the window, u can sell multiples of a stacked artifact at one click)
I can see 100 or so... but you make it appear larger XD
