Trade UI Problems
I don't know if this has been brought up officially or not yet. I suggest that you allow us to buy more than 5 port items at a time. It slows down trade very badly. Try buying 120 Neutron Blasters.
I'd also like you to add a button "Load All" in the load/unload menu. It takes forever to load the 120 Neutron Blasters you just bought into your moth (yes, even holding down enter).
Lastly, can you make it so that if you have 100 Neutron Blasters in a station's inventory, it just shows 1 weapon icon with the number 100 written next to it, instead of showing 100 individual weapon icons?

And we need an unload all button. I still revert to the old UI when trading.
There is an "Unload All" button. In the Load/Unload menu.
We'll look into the 5-item purchase limit on port addons.

Yeah, we have an "Unload All". We don't have a "Load All" like I originally wrote.
Thanks for the response Incarnate. How about the putting numbers next to the inventory icons instead of just showing multiple icons? Is that and the "Load All" button do-able too?

The problem is, addons are not currently stackable like normal trade items, due to potential differences in the amount of ammo in a given weapon type, and so on. We want to address this, but it's a non-trivial fix. This is also why there's a 5-unit purchase limit.. on the normal trade items, purchasing 120 of an item requires one database transaction. For the addons, purchasing 120 requires 120 unique transactions, which can cause things to kind of spiral out of hand and not scale so well. So we "temporarily" put the 5-unit limit into effect until we fixed the problem and made the items stack properly.
Fixing this is on the list, but it may be a few weeks.
A "Load All" button should be possible.

There is no Unload All on welcome screen though. Is it possible to add it there?
Aleksey's got a good point. What if we want to unload everything but NOT sell it when we dock?
We have to either switch to the Load/Unload interface and click there, or click on the individual cargo items and unload them. Neither of these two methods is as fast nor as efficient as having an "Unload All" on the welcome screen would be.

Posted this to the UI feedback thread, but it makes more sense here...
As it's a given, that if you sell, it must be unloaded, i'd suggest Sell, Sell All, Unload, Unload All buttons on the welcome screen.
