SUG: Partial Buy Orders

[roboczar]

Since the game mechanics only allow one buy order, perhaps it would make sense to allow people to partially fill the order. For instance, I can ask for 500 cedar, and 10 people can come along and sell cedar to me at my asking price. Each time one of them sells a certain amount, the total is decremented by that much.

If we could have more than one buy order, this wouldn't be an issue, but I like the idea of having partial buy orders anyway. :)

Hmm, I hadn't realized we were limited to the one per item. I know I've had more than one for different items. This would make sense then. :)

I think both Partial Buy and Partial Sell orders are a good idea. I'd also like to see the ability to modify the price of standing orders for a small fee (less than the cost of taking it down altogether).

I do not think partial sell orders are a good idea. I am usually making a better price for large amounts than for small, for examle posting 25 perfume for 24/per, 15 for 25/per and 5 for 26/per. And I like that :)
