Fleet Carrier Commodities Market Management.
The Fleet Carrier Commodities Market is one of the most promising aspects and would great benefit from some conceptual changes. Also a number of quality of life enhancements.
Here are some thoughts for possible adjustments to the Carrier Commodities Market management interface :
Please allow the owner to choose whether to BUY Only / SELL only / or BOTH, (Sell when there is stock available, could be by default). the ability to keep buying commodities (up the cargo limits and funds availability) while selling them at the same time is really key to a useful experience with the carriers commodity market.
When the owner selects a category or commodity, it should show on the Buy interface, when there is stock available (someone sold commodities on the carrier market) the available stock qty should now show on the sell interface automatically when owner configures as such.
Make the Carrier market behave like a market, do not introduce unnecessary configuration interactions by the owner.
Otherwise great work overall. Thanks for all the effort going into these features.
Cheers.

Here are some thoughts for possible adjustments to the Carrier Commodities Market management interface :
- Main commodities screen selection.
- Simplify the checks/unchecks selected categories or commodities to trade, (or have them all enabled by default, except for illegal).
- That should be the only step required at minimum to configure market service. In this case allocate a qty of 1 and the global carrier service tariff % by default to the selected category or commodities as a spread between Buy/Sell in relation to the galactic avg.
- Manage Individual Category or Commodity
- Owner sets cargo space allocation per category or commodity as desired (within total cargo constraint).
- Owner sets custom buy/sell pricing at the commodity level or alternatively to a custom % spread (Buy/Sell) at category level (i.e. Medicines, Metals, etc.) which would apply to the selection.
