Improvement to the logistic screen

Improve the civilian shipping menu:

  • Remove the dropdown and instead have all the buildings on the left always present (but 0 demand)
  • Same for the right side but show the current one in the planet
  • Double clicking on the left sets desired quantity for that item
  • Double clicking on the right sets supply for that item
  • Adding a supply when demand is 0 deletes the demand

I feel like the current system is very clunky, with buttons all over the place, ideally this system will allow faster handling of logistic, especially useful to get rid of mining colonies without having to click multiple times.

For example, if I create a colony on mars and go to the shipping tab, I would see all the buildings I can build on Earth, all with 0 demand. If I double click on automated mine and put 20, then I create a request for 20 automated mines. I can now go on earth, double click the automated mine and put 20, meaning I added 20 mines to the pool.

The advantage is that if I now want to add a mass driver, I don’t have to scroll until I find it but I can just look into the list, double click it and repeat.

In my opinion this reduces click amount and allows more intuitive colony management.
