Hi,
 
Firstly thanks for what looks liek a great game and then on to my suggestion.  I'm small, this is my first 'rich uncle' start and I made some mistakes but I'm alive and starting to understand how the game works.  My suggestion/problem is that one can not research the supply chain and potential sales of a product until you open a factory.
 
I have a bakery and I was wondering if I could make more money swtiching specialisation.  I will need eggs as well as flour to make pasta but I can not reserach the egg market until I switch specialisation.  I'm currently researching tech so I can make soem machines as my factories are only half full of machines.  (they started at 3.74 quality and I dont' want to add the ones I can afford as they are so poor in quality!)  but I can not reserach the prices of steel or even any resource that my subdivision don't already use somewhere.  
 
Is there soem way that the list of suppliers could be called up on a resource that my sub divisions don't use?
 
Thanks
 
Dom Bray

Hey Dombray ... read up some more on the other threats here, this subject has been explained several times and there's many more good tips about how to get around in the game.
 
The easiest for your case is to open a warehouse and then from there check the available suppliers and their cost. If you don't buy something to this warehouse you can just change the specialization of it and check the other type of products, and close down the warehouse if you dunt need need it anymore.

I'll have a look at your eggs in a mo.. lol.. though Ihave enough supplies and at a good price/quality..
 
The global reports does not let you see what is availble, so I wanted to set up a machine tools business, I need to see that high quality steel is available or I'd have to start with a metalurgy factory.  I can see what is availble on the market here!

I can see how this will work, but it is a shame that there isn't an easier way to look up the availablility and prices of goods!
 
Thanks for the advice though!
