Hack Idea: A count on how many to make?

[knightguy]

i'm looking for a mod to tell them have many to make of something or else they'll make hundreds or go broke if your not watching

kindve tell them to make 10 - 20 - etc

anyone know where i might find something like this?

Temporarily takes ElfPuddle's place...
Translation:

I need a hack with which to select the quantity of Make Many items, instead of having the Sim making items forever and ever until Armaggeddon finally arrives.

Thanks Dr. Beast, that first post made my brain implode.

That's a great idea for a hack. And the translation was pretty damn fine too, DrBeast.

I never use the Make Many option even when I need it, because it makes them all thes ame colour and that irritates me intensely.  Just one of my many little foibles ...

[knightguy]

i know my wording left much to be desired 

tho i hope one of the hackers get interested in my idea

you make a damn fine stupid to english translator, DrBeast!

[draranha]

You people here are so merciless!!
Nobody is perfect! You know, I'm Brazilian... 

Anyway, I think knightguy had a great idea and if that could be implemented it would be a nice mod.

Go ahead! You may correct my spelling/grammar if you want to.

Heh, and I'm greek, but I still speak England very best! 
Thing is, sometimes a question, or a sentence if you will, is written so badly you can't understand a thing! That's why this site has an official translator (who has been reported as AWOL by the way...shame, ElfPuddle!  ).

Eh, "Make Many" seems a little wiggy at best. Some items are made indefinitely until something causes them to stop, whereas for others, "Make Many" seems to translate as "Make One, but put it in the inventory instead".
