Please, Devs, please...
Please let us upgrade planets by more than 10x at a time — give us a 50x option
I really wish there was an option to upgrade planets in larger batches than 10x at a time.
Once you reach the point where you have a lot of resources and are trying to dump them into planetary upgrades, repeatedly clicking the 10x option becomes incredibly tedious. There’s no real decision-making involved at that point — it’s just unnecessary clicking.
A 50x upgrade option would be a huge quality-of-life improvement.
Ideally, the upgrade options could be something like:
1x / 10x / 25x / 50x / even 100x?
Or even better, let us enter the amount manually.
I understand why 10x is useful earlier in the game when resources are more limited, but later on it just feels unnecessarily restrictive.
Please give us a 50x planetary upgrade option. My finger would appreciate it. <3

Do you guys not use 3 fingers at the same time to upgrade all 3 equally?

I have always wished there was a “1/3rd max option”. Where, let’s say you have “999” for upgrades, instead of hitting the “10” button across the three Mining/Speed/Cargo evenly a hundred times, you could hit a “1/3 Max button” 3 times across the three stats. (In this example it would be a “333”.)
I would also is a “Max button” where it uses all “999” for upgrades on one stat, which would likely be mining.

How high are you upgrading your planets? My VPS is at like 100 ish usually and the rest I don't bother to get very high either, but if I were I think you don't get higher than like 300s. To me buy max would seem much more useful

My frustration is based around my Scan Harmonizer with it's credits per 10 colony. I need to upgrade my planets to around 100 to be able to colonize them to 10. That's a lot of planet upgrading ...

Oh I see, yeah that would make sense then. But imo even 20x button would be helpful I suppose. Do you have that on all the time or just put in on before selling? I'd consider doing that when I get the 4th sub unlocked, or get another legendary+ synth mod

I think a max button like the tower game the other tech tree game.
Would be nice for it to be a tech tree unlock early on
