We need notepads.
At least I do.
A nice feature to add to us merchant boys.
The commodity exchange could feature a notepad where one may add notes about prices and where they are. (maually, just typing text - that way we would keep the need to pay attention to prices).
Perhaps, if the developers have time for it, grouping could be added so that notes can be grouped together (for instance, prices and location for billiance and furs would be on different groups).
Notes could also be used to note interesting news, so that you don't forget later. For instance, a button in the news window (Take note) to copy the news item into the notepad. The same Take Note button could apply to the commodity exchange, for ease of usage.
I grant that all this could realistically be done in reality (I mean, I could grab a notepad and a pencil and start writing), but it is time consuming and some of us (I hope most) do not devote our lives at playing some game (although we do spend a significant amount of time in it). Some (hail them) even spend more time developing them than playing them.
I realize that it will be a low-priority task, since fixing bugs and making AI better (not harder) or other features are certainly more important. But, anyhow, I've found myself wishing for an embedded notepad more than once.
The thread is open for comments about this and any related feature. For instance, ideas for a dynamic economy. I've downloaded the code and I'll be trying to accomplish such things myself, so I will appreciate comments on that - also, If I find out how to add the notepad, I might do it myself. But if any developer sees this, I'll need some guide as to how code works.
I'll post any doubts here too.
I'm quite slow working (I have lots of other work), so patience is a must.
