Hi All,

So it makes sense to me that the game speed modifies the # of turns, however I have noticed it also adjusts a couple other items:
- Cargo Capicity from 100 to 300
- Buy immigrants is much more expensive
- Cost more food to create a new colonist (up from 200 in normal)
- Pioneer costs 150 tools

The issue I am running into is I would like to transfer less cargo than 300, for example in the Europe screen you can only buy 300 guns per block, however it is very expensive. I would like the option to buy 100 guns etc, or even transfer custom amounts of cargo to and from ships ... I don't always want to transfer the whole 300, may want to leave 100 in the warehouse.

Does anyone know how to adjust these thresholds? I like the longer gameplay, but not the new numbers...

Thanks

Hold down shift then click-drag. When you release the mouse (still holding shift) a popup to select how much comes up. :)

I feel so smart! I threw away the manual on accident and have spent so much time trying to figure that out! Thanks!
