can we get an overview of station services mechanics?

[Death Approaches]

some things just are bonkers, and we don't know what's intended, what's being adjusted as we report bonkers events, and so forth.

for example, I run my crew ragged keeping up with plastics demand, 3 chem refineries, solely to supply the two item fabricators to keep *15* of all weaponry on the list of Arms Dealer in stock at all times, but still I end up getting negged with a disatisified customer; what the hell did they expect of me?! I got more guns than you got crew, and I can only make them so fast! I tried 3 fabricators but run into a plastics deficit again. so 4 ships fly in at once all wanting to take advantage of my quality weaponry sale, what, I need to stock, 40, 50, more? of each!?

we get no metrics on the transactions of anything; we have no way to gauge stock or transaction rates other than to watch our stockpiles dwindle for everything and guesstimate. this isn't fun, but frustrating. please pass this along... while it's fun, it's a wildly varying. we could really use some informative data here, both in documentation and in-game, going forward.

love ya!
