Summary0012983: Make 'suspend spending' based on a percent or slider
DescriptionI really like the 'suspend spending if resources less than' option for control groups. It's a bit annoying typing in large numbers like 1800000, though, I'm always worried I'm going to be off by a zero. A slider or a dropdown with percents in multiples of 5 or 10 would help. I think it is more intuitive to think about it as a ratio as well.

Yeah, now that the resource cap is variable, this is definitely needed.

I'd push for it to simply be a percentage as a slider with a modifiable value
For example, the energy buffer is extremely hard to get on a specific value since the value distance is so small and you can't use arrow keys or the mouse wheel to increase or decrease the value by 1 tick

Even clicking on the number and typing something in would be wonderful with a slider next to it
