Has anyone ever been annoyed by the fact that you cant put a quantity in a field to upgrade more than one on the power up page, cause when i get 300 mil cache and i want to upgrade i gotta click like 1,000000000mil times just to upgrade it.

Before making a suggestion, check the ones that have already been made. This has been mention hundreds of times. I agree it is a pain having to click so many times, but this isn't the first time it has been mention. Sadly, it probably won't be the last :(

use Internet Explorer, click the thing to powerup once then hold down the 'enter' button...
same with FF only imo it's faster with IE and doesn't lag as much

hmm I might have to try that holding enter trick. Just the day I came into a quantity of DMU and upgraded one of my stats from 10 to 300; it was a lot of clicking. :?

Only because now they ascend with billions. When the game started it wasnt as much of a problem...

But, every new player needs to be able to get into the top 100 within a month it seems now days or the game would not be fair.

Definitely a royal pain in the arse...

It's not like Life Force Cache can be taken by others, so I see no reason as to why a quantity field can't be added...

its too complex a change as it the values increase unusually and adding multiples to that would cause problems.

which is why it hasnt and probably wont be done...

What he said.

It's true that it's a bit annoying... but it doesn't seem likely to be changed. besides, once you grow a bit more you wont be able to afford more than a few of each item. Also, if admin gets a chance to work on ascension there are other, more important things to look at first.

Maybe I'm an idiot, but how would the coding differ than paying for UP upgrades? Each individual upgrade for UP increases in cost, right? Just like each individual upgrade for Power Ups gradually increase in cost.

The coding should be very similar, it's just a matter of changing the formulas to match the ones for each individual Power Up.

I doubt that the costs for Power Ups would be random. I'd be willing to bet that the costs are following a fairly complex formula. There obviously are different formulas on costs, based on the race you chose... but they all follow a formula.
