Topic: [385808] Less fiddly controls for the market barrows?

[-385808] DanOShanter (US1) [US1] :: April 17, 2022, 1:06 a.m.
Would it be possible to adopt the same control system for market barrows that is in place for setting the number of soldiers and tools you want in an attack?  To wit: in an attack you can use the sliders to set the number of troops, tools, etc. you want to use, but there's also a box that you can type the exact number in.  That's somewhat useful, but IMHO it would be much even more useful in the market barrows, where the numbers are much larger and you often need to get them adjusted fairly exactly to match the capacity of whoever you're sending rss to if you don't want your barrows to bounce back and deliver nothing.  I can't count the number of times I've tried to move the slider just a teeny bit to add the hundred or so rss I still needed only to see the number shoot up five or six hundred; moved it back just a teeny bit and it shot down eight or nine hundred; moved it back up a teeny bit and it shot up a thousand and a half...you get the picture.  Not fun spending ten or fifteen minutes that way before you get it right.

Hi, surprise surprise, you can already click on the number and then type away ;-)

Oooooh, I see now ... guess I was expecting a fill-in box or something, for some reason never occurred to me to click on the countdown area above the slider

In that case, is there any way to delete this embarassingly mindless question?  :/

Something like this:

Just double-click where the numbers go and they should highlight the numbers. Then type whatever number you want then, if you want to send another resource, just use the tab key and it will go onto the next resource for you.
