First off, love the game. Great job!
Now, I don't play in long stretches, and I also have a crappy memory.
Is there any way you could add a profit calculator so I can know if i'm selling at a loss?
And while I have your attention, what about a buy/sell max button along with the slider?

you want to buy/sell that individual resource, or everything in the ship's cargo hold?
we are testing a "loot all" and "sell all trade resources" features, but did not think to add buttons near the slider.

Both, I guess. A "Dump All" button with an "Are you sure" popup is not a bad idea, but may not be very useful. A buy max button by each resource is just for those of us too lazy to work a slider. The profit calculator is the big one though. I can never remember if I'm selling at a loss or not.

Rather than a profit calculator (or in addition to), you could display the average cost of a particular good in the hold and let the player figure out if selling them is worthwhile or not. This would have to be a running average of all purchases, I'm not sure about including goods acquired for free (exploring, harvesting or looting).

I like the idea of a way to display the price paid for cargo (looted stuff = 0). Do NOT like the "sell all" button, because I can not envision any time when I would want to sell all my water-fuel. Maybe if Water-Fuel was stored in the "water-Fuel Tank" instead of the cargo hold??? (hint, hint!). Maybe Fuel capacity could be a feature of ships like Engine, Sals, Armor etc. that can be upgraded ;D
