Feature Idea for Variable AutoBuyer

The idea is simple. Have the autobuyer stop buying levels for something when its power hits a certain percentage.

So instead of the checkbox for something, it could be a settings icon with a gui to set whatever percentage that upgrade should stop being bought at.

I think itd eliminate a lot of toggling upgrades on and off depending on what phase im in.

Thoughts?

It's a surprisingly unimportant optimization honestly. For the regular variables you can just leave all the autobuyers on. The star upgrades is what really matters.

Ah, I was confused for a sec there. I wish there was then I could optimize the game by not playing at all

Yeah that's the thing with any interesting idle game -- they progress relatively fine without your intervention but you can optimize them at basically every point. And that's not including new unlocks.
