Hi
I currently have only 5 stores selling various types (like gifts, jewellery, flowers, wine, cigarettes). For me it’s really hard to remember the “lot sizes” or how many shelves of different type i have in different shops. I mean Cigar takes 900 items, jewellery 50. If I have 3 shelves of both I need to have a minimum inventory of 2700 Cigars and 150 jewelleries… or did I have 2 of those shelves in one of the stores? Then my 4 other stores might have 1 shelf and 2 shelves, so guess the total should be um…?
Don’t think the aim of the game should be totaling a lot of figures together/running a separate spreadsheet somewhere, how about feature “Keep my store shelves atleast X % filled” where X can be inputed by the player . The purchasing contract should also be linked to this value, so I would get from the importer so many cigars that my shelves are 75% filled in every store with the delivery.
