2) I would like the old notice on crops showing 'percentage of growth' to be made available as an optional alternative to the new 'number of hours to go', which I find very confusing.

3) I'd like the wording 'Ready in 1.3 Days' to be changed, as I find that if I just hover the mouse and glance at the message, I often mistake this for 'Ready to harvest.' It slows me down when doing a swift inspection. Perhaps 'Harvestable in 1.3 Days'?

4) A long-term wish; I would love to be able to group items in the Facility Manager according to my own design. For example, I'd have everything that needs cheese together, and everything that requires sugar.
I have lost crops due to mis-reading the "ready" message in haste, so I like number 3. Also, a customized facility manager is a long-time dream of mine, too. I would like to be able to exclude some items from "start all",although I love the concept (e.g. I NEVER make peach liqueur because I would rather use the peaches elsewhere, so I can't use the bottling machine in the distillery). Small thing, but a "dashboard" for the facility manager where we could arrange facilities in a preferred order, choose the order in which they fill, choose what items to start each time, etc. would be terrific. And, of course, my longed-for "super forklift" that would store ALL items at a click. One can dream....
