Minerals All Button

 Alright, I tried bringing it up on the Artifacts All Button suggestion thread awhile back, but here it is.
Why can't we have an All button next to the "Receive Minerals Shipment" button? To be honest, I would rather have that than the Artifacts All Button. People were saying that it's "such a drag" to repeatedly click for artifacts. Well, for people with small cargoes, it would be very helpful for an All button that would receive as many shipments as possible and sell every one of them. I know people will say, "You should get more cargo then." Well, really. Be logical here. Saving time is not allowed? Please Dan, I don't think I am alone on this one. _________________  Galaxy Legion Status: Rank 245 Sillixx Fixer. |

But you cant collect more minerals then ur cargo, as for artifacts you can go above and beyond your cargo space, would not work!

Read what I said.

To revise, I mean a cycle like this: Receive -> Sell -> Receive -> Sell...etc. As for the artifact comment, you cannot go above and beyond. It always stops at your cap. "Not enough cargo to accept artifact shipment." _________________ Galaxy Legion Status: Rank 245 Sillixx Fixer. |

It already works that way, you just don't have enough cargo.
When your free space exceeds 10x your draw then you will drain your minerals. You can try it with smaller amounts to prove me right. _________________   |

Even if it would make any sense I'd say "No!" just for the red font. But it doesn't make any sense so "No, no, no !"

What about people like me who collect Aid. and Ku. This would sell them all. Unless it discounts locked mins.

Just like signatures and avatars are part of what people look like on the forums, so does my red font. And again, what part don't you get?

Minerals that you have locked would not be sold just like normal. _________________ Galaxy Legion Status: Rank 245 Sillixx Fixer. |

I like the idea. It will never happen however. Cargo is a convenience issue when it comes to minerals. It is a storage issue for artifacts. I don't think Dan wants to mess with a mechanic like this in the game.
i'll just have to click 20+ times and wish it was more convenient. |

This is exactly what I'm thinking also, but I thought I would at least throw it out there. It would be nice if people wouldn't be so cynical on this suggestions forum... _________________ Galaxy Legion Status: Rank 245 Sillixx Fixer. |

If you want to be able to collect more minerals per shipment then increase your cargo hold, its that simple

It is somewhat logical. Not always must you travel to deliver goods irl, maybe if this feature were to become available it could have a penalty attached to it.

O M G ! . why? . it completely defeats part of the games mechanics AND is a total waste of the developers time to add something that does that while having nothing in it for them...

the way it sounds, he's just asking for a macro'd form of "Receive Mineral Shipment", "Sell All Un-Selected", rinse and repeat until out of mineral points or only locked minerals are filling all remaining cargo space
...similar to how the new "all" checkbox for artis is just a macro'd form of "Receive Artifact Shipment", rinse and repeat until artifact points drop below 1K _________________ _________ Officer Namba1 of The Unknown, Lv.666+ Dark Smuggler |

Yes, and people's only valid comeback is that that's what cargo is for. Imo, cargo is for holding things, not for saving time.

Let me ask... How many clicks does it take you to collect AND sell a full mineral bar? It takes me 4. Receive, Sell All, Receive, Sell All. The reason the Claim All Artifacts button was added was the tedium of individual clicks for anything over like 40k AP. You could have 50+ clicks to claim that many artifacts. There comes a point where convenience turns into laziness and I think a Collect All Minerals button is past that point.
I'm sorry, but if it takes more than 8 clicks to empty a full mineral bar, it means what everyone else is saying... You Need More Cargo. _________________ Ranks 400+ Join us in exploring..

and what do you expect the space-deficient folks to do in the meantime, Darth?
this would help out lots of people i honestly think it would be better to have this feature... then you just lock what types you'd like to keep... and one single receive click _________________ _________ Officer Namba1 of The Unknown, Lv.666+ Dark Smuggler |
