5,000 Limit on building Ships/Defence removed

At the moment we can only build 5,000 of each unit at any one time.

Can you remove the limit to make it easier to build more than 5,000 units?

As it is now, if we want to build 50,000 Rocket Launchers we have to enter it 10 times. etc

This was an add on that they put in the game a few months back when they did the big server switch-over. It used to be you could put as many RL's into the que and build as resource you have sitting. im pretty sure it wasnt by accident, so i highly doubt it will be reverted back..

Previous limit was 1000. We raised it to 5000.

odd....i would bet my fleet of LG's that prior to the 5k cap, i was able to put 10K structures or ships or whatever into the que all at once....NOT only 1K.....

I've heard of that happening harry, but never been able to do it. I agree with the topic though, the 5k limit is really really annoying

Bump as I find this pretty annoying and would like it raised to 10k

I would raise it to 50k if possible, if not why not no limit or is it a failsafe to stop players overspending?

Light lasers. Building say 200k in a block, it takes a lot of clicks.

I'd hate to hit 3m light lasers on my moon by accident and have 4 years queue is why I want 10k limit.

^ its not that bad imo. are you guys saving to build everything at once? if you want to raise the limit to 10k couldnt you just re-enter the same number one more time? :P

personally i prefer to have it at 5k since it reduces the scale of overspending. thats just me though
