Hello fellow settlers,
I would really appreciate a button to pay the resources for a quest even if you don't have done the rest...

This way the "quest complete" banner would pop once the production, or other stuff the quest ask for, is done. At the moment you have to check manually from time to time if you can now can pay the resources, which is kind of a pain...
Happy settling

Yesss definitely agree with this - especially when its for a guild quest, if you forget to check back then time could run out and everyone in the guild gets less.

Disagree.
This is to prevent people from paying (expensive) resources but still failing to complete the whole quest. (paying damascene swords, but not completing VLT)
The problem is (as mentioned) that we don't get a pop up when the non-paying part of the quest is done.
No one said that you wouldn't get the resources back if the time limit of the quest runs out ;) But yes its a good point, you have the same problem with provision house recipes for quests that disappear wen the quest is validated.Quote:

You are asking for BB to take responsibility for your decisions.Quote:

I like this idea!Quote:

I guess either having an extra popup to say the quest is ready to complete or being able to pay the resources early would help.
Regarding the issue of paying resources and then failing the quest, the resources could be "reserved" for the quest until it is complete rather than being spent straight away.
This works the same way as the trade office where resources being used in a trade are taken from storage and then returned to storage if the trade expires (or returned to star menu if storage is full once trade expires).
