[Summary] - Summarise your idea in one or two sentences.
I know I'm only new here but I think the goods productions times need a tweak (primarily Steel, Marble and Planks). Currently there are 4 options (3 hours, 9 hours, 24 hours or 48 hours) and it seems to me the 48 hour option is kind of redundant
[Details] - Clarify your idea by explaining the specifics.
If you are active (log on at least once a day) you will never use the 48 hour option and the time between 9 hours and 24 hours is too vast for an active player so my suggestion is to get rid of the 48 hours option and change the 9 hours to 8 hours and then put a 12 hour option in so that then the options would be 3 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours.
[Reasons for implementing] - Explain why this idea should be implemented.
3 hours as the first option isn't ideal either in my opinion but at least if you are logged on say 8 hours a day you can work around that and then use the 12 hour option then until you can next log on thus wasting less man hours you could avail of over a 24 hour period. 48 hours is illogical as an option for new users. Granted it probably works for people with a stock pile of the Goods since they won't be in short demand but for those just starting out we need shorter time spans where we can generate more of the good in the time we have available to us. As it is now lets say I am going to bed but and I cant log on for 12 more hours then I either pick 9 hours (and lose out on 3 hours production) or 24 hours and have 12 of those 24 hours producing goods at a lower time to production ratio and bring me back to the same time of the day/night where I have to chose between 9 hours or 24 hours yet again for my next production.
[Impact on other game features] - Name all the game features that would be impacted by implementing this idea.
Other than to a persons own account where they could manage their time better and make the most of it it would also improve things for traders since people would be making more Goods thus be in a position to sell more since not everything they make would have to go to their own upgrades, they could acquire a surplus and as such get on the trading market. Obviously the amount of goods produced would have to change too to compensate for the shorter time frames but I think it would be beneficial especially to new players and would have a knock on effect for more established players who buy from them
