Well, I agree. The reason I wanted to skip that is because it needs more programming, and I prefer having something half done implemented as fast as possible and then adjust it, rather then having everything 100% prepared in 2 years from now
We are likely to make mistakes anyway, so it is better to "beta test" ideas - players will verify it much better I think. I'm ok with resources needed for repairing, but I wouldn't wait for this option if it needs a lot of extra programming.
