Why 56 ?

[Franciscus]

Something that has been bugging me since many weeks...[&:]

Why "56" as the starting value for germany in Reinf/Upgrade ? [:D]

Why not 50 ? 55 ? 60 ?

Yes! This! We demand to know!

Because it's 50% of their production. That is the default.

More important to me than the odd (well technically even) number of 56 is how to change this number by anything other than a multiple of 10. Perhaps it is a bit OCD to want to be able to put a nice round number in there (or any other number) but at present I can only seem to add or subtract by 10.

When trading with other nations, I am allowed to send any amount of production and oil. (The only hotkey I have found is holding Control to get +5 instead of +1 per click.) Even this part of the UI is a bit awkward.

For upgrade/reinf box, reduce the figure to 0, then build back up again in nice round numbers

[Dalwin]

Of course that gives you round numbers, but it is still in multiples of 10. Sometimes I would like to have 15 or 25 (mostly for minor countries.)
