Player Features and Ideas Discussion

In compiling a program I thought about how includes are specified as a path and wondered why we couldn't set some sort of 'materials path' for manufacturing.

If we were able to set a a default 'materials path' for manufacturing then jobs could be set up much simpler.

Such a path would look like

Item Hangar
Corp Hangar 1
Corp Hangar 2
...
Corp Hangar 6

- If those hangars are accessible to you of course! :)

You could optionally have it look in containers for materials too.

It would be set, once, from a manufacturing options page and that's it.

The different items could be sourced from whereever they are instead of having to group them together and/or set that source point EVERY TIME you make something.

You could still see where a component or material is sourced from before submitting the job of course, just like you see what is available/missing.
