Suggestion: More detailed breakdown of miners

[gilded garden]

Yo, it's me again, big-ass-maze dude (and his friend @cinder wyvern ). We would really like a more detailed breakdown of all miners. Currently there is no real way to see how many clay miners we have (and thus how many more we need). Is this possible?

[floral hatch]

Statistics board shows income of resources. If clay is down / dropping, recruit more clay miners. Hopefully this tip helps

[jagged wraith]

It doesn't

[floral hatch]

Yea it only shows "miner" but one quick look at the statistics board can tell you what resources you need more of.

[jagged wraith]

That's not what you want to know though

What you want to know is how many of each miner you have

So you can calculate how many smelters you need

Or in reverse, from prestige chests or w/e down, how many miners you need

[floral hatch]

The board also tells you how much you made. so if you make 100 clay in a day and each brick for example needs 1 clay, assuming the day is 100 seconds long you can make 100 bricks. It would be a nice QOL to see more detail but atm you can still calculate how many you would need

also assuming smelting takes 1 second

but more likely smelting takes 30 or so seconds

so you can make just over 3 bricks in this case

if you have 200 clay production, and 300 clay consumption

you want to increase your clay miners by 50%

this means you want to know how many you have at the moment

for which you currently need to do manual counting, as the miner job is one general one

it isn't broken down to separate jobs in the 'manage jobs' UI

(or just, not care that much about precision and just yolo some jobs down and see what sticks, but hey 😄)

Pretty much what i do at the moment lol. Though usually if i see a resource drop a certain amount, i will work out how much i can make of that resource in a day vs consumption. i don't usually even know how many miners of each type i have lol, i just look at how long it takes to mine a particular ore in a day and increase miners to match consumtion

I'm the kind of person that has a spreadsheet, though you don't really need it for this game, and only really at the end if you want to

I just have the miners at different outposts, and also counted them and put them in the SS just in case
