cumbersome.

That's being pretty generous, there.  If I didn't have multiple tabs open, I'd call it a nightmare.


A rough estimate on time left until stock depletion would be wonderful too.

You get how much you've sold in last 15 minutes, all it takes is a calculus to find out the rest.
Yep. My spreadsheet does that for me.

Time till empty (in hours): Current Inventory / Sales per tick / 4

The next step  is turning your spreadsheet into a bot that plays the game for you :p.

A bot cant crash markets and commit economic crimes.

selling quickly has a price. considering I don't have the shop yet, 25 is the most I am willing to pay.

I am fine with 25$. Was just trying to haggle up a bit.

Will put em up on the market at exactly 10 minutes from this post, so someone else cant buy em before you. EDIT: So at 58 minutes, if you arent in a weird half-hour timezone.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

To manage my stock, I buy one thousand stuff when the inventory get under one thousand

 it's enough for a few day (got a small market) and easy to track manually, as it's a 'stateless' buying decision.

It's based on the hope and unconfirmed opinion that storage space is free

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Sorry, I'd restarted my company to set things up properly and needed to make a good hunk of batter first. Cakes are coming.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.
