Managing materials limit (and others)

[Seona]

So I'm hoping one of you more-experienced folks has a solution to this that I just haven't thought of, because it's doing my head in.




"Materials" seems to cover a whole heap of things. I'm not even sure what, exactly. This is making it really difficult to manage the limit/cap, and also results in a lot of micromanaging of my industry - just because I've put the cap up because I want more of product A doesn't mean I want that cap absorbed by extra production of products X, Y, and Z. Is there a sane way to deal with this? (Alternatively, should I just give up now and let myself go insane?)
