    Show material supply on mouse over

    When mousing over some material at the buildings status, it would be useful to show how many of that specific material the player have on stock.

    I see myself frequently clicking on the top bar and searching for the right tab to find that material supply. Contextual info would lead to more dynamic decisions.

    Surely quick enough to click on the nearest storehouse?

    It's really very quick. I do prefer clicking at the top bar. It just think it would be faster if I contextually could see the stock, but I do agree... playing a little more made me realize that this is really fast enough to open the inventory. The only problem, that you can get used to it, is to find the right tab.

    I'm backing down again to my original proposal. It is indeed very convenient to see your supply contextually, mainly when you are ordering something. When ordering fish food, for example, it is important to see how many fish food you already have, how many sandwiches and how many breads. This way, you can make a wiser decision.

    One can click at top bar, but will have to look for the materials and this will interrupt the current task.
