We're introducing quick action buttons at the top of the BUILD, CASH, and EXPLORE pages. Quick action buttons are single click shortcuts for common actions based on recent country state. Quick actions that require turns are available immediately for all users on all servers. Quick actions that don't use a turn, such as purchasing food, are only available for Premium members.

Update 06/05/2024: teching quick actions added on the RESEARCH page for techers.

As an example, consider the BUILD page for a techer: https://imgur.com/a/fuqQxlN

Here's why each of the 7 quick buttons appear at the top:

* Build 1 cs - the country has recently built cs and has enough turns, money, and empty land to build 1 cs
* Build 4 cs - the country has recently built cs and has enough turns, money, and empty land to increase BPT by 1
* Explore 1 Turn - the country has recently explored and is allowed to explore
* Build 62 labs - the country is a techer and has enough turns, money, and empty land to build 1 BPT worth of research labs
* Build 186 labs - the country is a techer and has enough turns, money, and empty land to build 3 BPT worth of research labs
* Build 62 indies - the country is producing 100% spies, is not an indy, has at least 1 indy, and has enough turns, money, and empty land to build 1 BPT worth of indies
* Buy 1042 Bushels - the country owner is a Premium member, the country is losing food per turn, the country does not have enough food on hand for the next 12 turns or so, and food is available on the public market

We also added a "Automatically sell food on private market" option on the MANAGE page. This is available on all servers for Premium members and is available for all users on the FFA server.

Please note that none of the quick actions should be taken as recommendations or advice. We don't do any checking as to whether or not the country has enough food or money to perform the actions.

Players can show or hide quick actions at the individual country level using the country preferences page. They can also choose whether or not quick actions are enabled by default for new countries using the game preferences page.

We hope that this feature is useful to players. If feedback is positive then we will expand the number of quick actions available.

Thank you for playing Earth Empires.
