Trade issues.
I made this comment in general as well, but... trade is kinda rough. I feel like there are a bunch of other options that would work better than the current 'press and hold to sell a single resource' feature that is in effect now.

I came to make this post after my wrist started hurting, trying to sell enough of the excess resources I'd gathered to buy some armor. I'm still not done with it; just need to give mt tendons a rest from the incessant button pressing (I'm trying to sell over 400 units of gas; it's going to be a while).

As in my other post here, I'll offer some suggestions as bullet points.

Offer a 'hold down to sell' option. This will simply allow a player to hold the sell button to sell items one by one, instead of press and hold for each one. The player can then hold the button until the amount they want is sold, then let go. A bit easier on the hands.

Offer fractional selling. Offer a 'sell 1/4' or 'sell 1/2' option on resrouces as a one button or one click option, allowing players to sell a chunk of their resources without selling them all.

Offer a slider or a place to type in a specific amount. With the slider, it would have the total amount the player has as the max amount and one as the smallest. The player could then just move the slider to choose an amount to sell. With the 'typing in' option, there would be a place where the player could directly type in an amount to sell. Both of these are usually combined in a wide range of games I've played when selling is an option and quantities get fairly high.

Offer direct trading. Resources have specific values. Since this is the case, it should be possible to sell those resources in direct trade for the item you want. For example, gas is worth 3 pesos per unit. If an item costs 300 pesos, I would be able to directly trade 100 gas for the item I want. This might seem like it would phase out pesos entirely, but it would make sense that barter would be as functional a system of trade on this island as directly buying with money, and be interchangeable as well, especially for the guerrillas.

Give me a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ break why is this still not tweaked yet LOL. The most inane monotonous mechanic for no other explicable reason other than trying to get players to buy currency packs with real money. Pretty scummy guys.

I was searching how sell other than 1 or all, but it seems it's never been tuned, yes hard to believe but on another way, it's not that important either, to temperate:
- Even late game past final there's still crafting through new types of improved weapons.
- Building material are alway useful because they are used for banditos ops that are useful to get more rare crafting material.
- Money isn't that much useful, past buying more equipment/weapon you probably already found or bought, it's not really useful, there's no economy layout as pay mercenaries, buy ammo, repair stuff. Soon it's more the special money of spe ops that is more useful but you can't buy/trade it with standard money.

And then it looks just like a reasonable UI addition, very isolated to other parts of the game as just for shop UI usage. This could sadly hint how poor was sells and current sells flow hence low budget for maintenance/small late improvements like for last game edition. And the very low quality of all DLC reinforce this feeling.

All of that is more a clue of a dying series, if not a dying genre, single player shooters.

Even worse is the none allowance to use the same key for in a chopper= SORRY, that is used when you are not flying =FACEPALM- BUT I AM FLYING, not on my feet! So many other games allow this.
