Economy Circle

from Stardock Forums

The economy disc needs the ability to lock one aspect in place. This is the big disadvantage of this visualization over the 3 sliders. If I want to set my planet to be making a certain number of credits, I should be able to lock that in, then play with differing levels of research and manufacturing.

You know, when you lock the wheel it would move in curves.

I tried locking a wheel once. It resulted in my buddy crashing his bicycle.

Not sure i can see why you would need to lock it just move the dot up until you get the number of credits you want then laterally to splitt between research and production...or am I missing something?

It's not really laterally, you have to move in curves like Darca noted. It isn't difficult without the ability to lock, but adding the lock would be a bit of a time saver, especially if you want to experiment a little with what different levels of the other two would give you.
