Is there a way to disable the production of a steelmakers clan?

[Scarab-Phoenix]

I want to stockpile some coal, but can't find a button to make my steelmakers stop using it. Do I really need to train them into diggers and waste a lot of resources to train them back into steelmakers later as a workaround? Or there is a way to stop the production?

I don't think there is a way now. There is already a button in the tooltip window for things like honey and grapes to toggle whether or not it can be converted to food. The same sort of thing could be generalized for all stockpiles to add a button to allow/disallow consumption.

UI note though - it would be better to have the state of these toggles (consumption allowed, consumption disallowed, food conversion, etc) be a small icon next to each stockpile rather than having to hover over each item to see it in the hovertext window.

Conversion Professions have a "Stop Working" button in the upper-left corner of the screen after you've clicked on the Clan in the Clans Screen. Let me know if you don't see it or if it's not working.

Found it! Thank you for your quick response.

[Jon Shafer]

No problem! Let me know if you have any other questions about the game. :)

Of course! Thanks again!

Could this button be added for professions that burn resources for a passive benefit? Baker, glassmaker, etc.

Thanks Jon.

I think that the location of this button is far less intuitive than other buttons in the game.

Fair points, added to the list.
