    Pause and start all buildings of the same type

    Since it is kind of annoying having to pause (and restart) every building 1 by 1 (think of gold production and other buildings you only run while buffed), I thought it would be easy if you could pause all buildings of the same production with one click. Was thinking of a pause button in the economy overview so you can pause the entire branch.

    Hope someone shares these thoughts ^^ and sorry if this idea has popped up before.

    Greetz, Dusty

    Personally I don't think I'd use it much, since I tend to micro-manage building-by-building. However, I do like options and there would be occasional times it could be useful so +1
    Sorry, but I've slept since then...

    Coal can be produced by 4 different types of buildings in game, also it feeds many different chains. A simple on/off switch is just too blunt a option in this case. There are many other buildings which also feed multiple chains.

    I cant see it happening but maybe in Economy Overview where it shows all buildings in their type there could be a total number shown e.g.

    Bakeries 14
    Sleep 0 - 14

    So you can put any number up to 14 to sleep. (They should also stop glowing when you are buffing buildings less mistakes will be made when buffing)
