Hi and thanks for all the suggestions.

If you want to make sure that your suggestions are seen and prioritized, you should add the to the proper system to do so here:
https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?game=1193

As an aside note, the rulebook is pretty clear in that a fully automated factory will produce 1 and only 1 additional good. Therefore, the icon underneath the last automation token is simply a reminder that your factory is fully automated and that it now produces an additional good. Therefore, being able to see underneath automation tokens is irrelevant. Again, it will always be the rightmost automation token, as a reminder to produce an additional good in the factory, if it produces.

I have a question about the "price protection" capital asset. It appears this building gives the ability to react once per decade to a stock price drop, either from withholding or from a different player selling shares during the Stock Phase.

Will this building prompt me to react to a share price drop in either of the above situations? I ask because I haven't owned the building very long, and the game (table# 101464557) prompted me as per usual during my company's operation phase giving me the option to use the asset. This seemed odd to me, since I had not withheld, nor would activating it during the operation phase benefit me since the Stock Phase occurs first in the decade.

Thanks in advance!

According to the rules the "price protection" capital asset is suppose to work once by decade. During a game another player and I both sold shares of that company and the price didn't drop on the second sale. So I guess it s a bug.

Can you please report it with the table number in https://boardgamearena.com/bugs ? This way the developer will be notified and have access to all the relevant info. Thanks!

Automation:

The main purpose of automating (I assume) is to unlock those extra goods as well as win one of the end game goals (if available).

I am currently playing a game where I selected the double automation action and when I chose the factory, the workers were removed but the automations didn't make it into the factory.....???

Please fix this to where when you select the factory you want to automate it moves the automation in the worker space. If there are worker spaces empty in the next factory, then they should automatically be shifted there. If your factory is full, then send them back to the labor pool. It doesn't make any sense that you have to click twice to move your worker off then move the automated piece on.
