I hear ya'... it's just that 30 is such an arbitrary number from a realism perspective, so it's got to be justified from a game balance perspective, and that means increasing it should preserve balance.

Or not.. <shrug>

More work orders already take longer to process.

A work order of 1 is completed faster than a work order of 30. Each item takes some amount of time to process.

Maybe it's stored as a byte with 2 bits left over for 'processed' and something else?
