Would it be possible to implement automatic farming? With the current system it takes five minutes to demand resources from each farming village (with ten cities and about 60 farming villages). Now, I just demand resources for either 4 hours or 8 hours.
With automatic farming, I would be able to focus on my city's development, the alliance forum, and attacking people without wasting time demanding resources. This would also give me about 7x more resources from farming villages - about 4,500 resources per farming village per day, based on the current rates in a speed 1 world (like Upsilon). In my main city, where I have conquered all 8 farming villages, this would mean 36,000 of each resource from farming villages every day. Even if the rate were lower, automatic farming would make a lot of players happier.
