Suggestion: Trade routes only active up to an amount | Forums

[Holgast]

So I can set things to be bought or sold to a certain amount in my warehouse, but I can't set conditions on my domestic trade routes like 'unload this only if the receiving port has less than X of this item'. It ends up that I just move all of my stuff to the other island and then their storage is full while my first island doesn't have enough items left.

I agree, this is frustrating. Requires to either move production to a dedicated island which doesn't need the item, or set the amount so low that it does not move all stock to the other island. I really likes the 2205 system where you didn't have stocks, but just production / min. So you could control that the production kept in the positive numbers.

Yes, please.
Simple conditions on load if or unload if are crucial for optimalisation.
