I don't think it makes much sense going with the ranges, since most high level resources you don't really need to keep track of.

Especially when you consider stuff like platinum ore or mahogany wood where the current state is always "much more than you can spend".

As for the customizable bar, I think a good approach would be a checkbox in the options tabs allowing us to choose which components are supposed to be rendered on start of the game. Drag & drop would be nicer but I think way too complex to be implemented easily.

Has been suggested since the dawn of time.

Personally I would prefer check-box's in Eco.

Make the top menu dynamic

As you advance in the game, the need for knowing how many pine planks, hardwood planks, stone and marble becomes more or less obsolete. How about giving players the choice of showing which ever ressource they find usable there?

+1
Nice idea :) - I never look at the top menu now. I have to go to the Economy overview.

suggested many, many times before :)

The bar across the top of the screen that shows you the levels of various resources would be a lot more useful if it was user configurable, as you progress into the game, knowing how much stock of pinewood and stone is not useful, and other things become a priority. If users could select what they see on that bar it would add utility and just generally not waste space on information is not interested in.

+1 from me, I like that sound of that. especially when keeping an eye on expert resources when a player is trying to level buildings up. Or if a player needs to watch out for a rare resource from running too low.

Previously suggested here.

did u know u can open up a window showing all ur stock?
