Merge Item Lister with Production Lister
Title pretty well says it all. I'm sure there's a reason why you haven't already done this but I got a little frustrated today alt-tabbing from one to the other while trying to mine. Maybe a button on the Production Lister to tie it in? Or just a left or right click on a commodity or piece of equipment? Might be more trouble for you than it's worth but I think it would be handy if it's do-able.
For instance, I was looking at the Oct FM out of Outpost and it required RF transceivers. So I go looking for where they are and where they are made. I go to Market Lister first; no joy. Then I go to Production Lister and I hunt and hunt and hunt to see where they are made before I go to Item Lister, find out they are produced at Wake, GP and Corridor. Had I thought to check a commodity that uses RF I probably would have found it faster in the Production Lister, but I wasn't sure off-hand what used RF Transceivers.
Bottom line: I'm lazy and don't want to have to search too far on too may screens or open too many windows to accomplish whatever reasearch I'm trying to do at the moment. I used to keep a notebook with that kind of production information, etc but with the slow but steady changes Istvan has/is introducing I find it more trouble than I'm willing to mess with to try and keep it up. I have limited time I can devote to the game, unfortunately, and I want to spend that time PLAYING now researching how to play. I know you too have better things to do, but you seem to do THIS kind of stuff so well and apparently easily. Thanks Jump, either way.
