he wants some kind of notification from the game that hes running low on supplies :P i think =)

so he doesnt run out without noticing... i think the rest of us start getting suspicious when ships dont build :P

1) i dont think its possible to do this in the way you are suggesting
2) you dont even have this for "normal" resources either, all you'll have is the warning if you dont have enough for something you currently want to build/research, but there is no warning for if you are running low.

lol i do look for sihps but i foret becouse im ding other things. then i notice hey my ships arnt biulding?! the warning would be like the old crew one or Dilithium/tritanium. when your out and try to build somthing it tells you once. you know green text shows up
Incifisant Suppys (sry bout the spelling there) and some voice says it maby. it would jsut be nice, and consisten with other building suppys. lest i think so.

Then some guy would be saying this all the time with the Dominion lol :D

I dont mind having this tho, but I wont be angry if it isnt in either :P Since all u have to do is look at your supply screen here and there :S

what i do with my star base is i just wait for the first lot to run out or get low and then i click the supply button 10 times and it gives me supplys when i need them and when i have the rescourses to spear.

i tend to do that wen im running low, but id never queue them, that could go horribly wrong.

the thing is tho, if you happen to have 1800 tri then i think you'll recover pretty quick, most of the time the only time i have that is if i am researching or if i am saving up for supply so.

... because you dont win games by having spare resources lol... :S

when you run out of supply your ships wont build, so your dilithium goes up until you have enough to buy some supply, then your ships start building again.

the only time this doesnt apply is if youre building ships that cost more than 600 dilithium... then u ahve to do it urself.

er yeah im not an idiot i know all that, :mellow: , im saying that how can you make a queue out of an instant build item (obviously when you have enough to build them).

Well, i don't use that often, but sometimes when resources are low i delay each vessel so i don't get that annoying were out of dilithium message.
