lots of stuff in this game requires credits plus XX minerals...

...in those areas that require minerals ("install new" ship part windows, "build new structure" windows, certain mission windows) there should be a quick buy button to buy the amount needed (assuming there's space in the cargobay).... it should be permanantly visible so you can just click back and forth between the quickbuy button and the button for the ship part / planet building / mission / whatever is requiring the minerals

this would minimize the time required to do these tasks by removing the issue of having to jump back and forth between tabs multiple times per minute, or trying to juggle multiple numbers in your head so you don't have to go to the trade window more than once

That would be nice. +1

Something like " It costs xx,xxx,xxx for the required minerals. Would you like to purchse? "Yes" or "No."

+1, great idea I've thought of hundreds of times when purchasing things, especially planet structures!

Hope this one gets it

i like this idea especially for the planetary construction standpoint as its a pain to keep going back and forth when upgrading multiple planets.

+1 I hated having to bounce back and forth when I finally got up to whatever the next level was for my Advanced Construction and I would go "Well, time to spend half an hour going between Planets and Trade again..."
