For the most part I side with mookiemookie. I don't want the devs wasting vauable time on overly complex, knitpicking, small stuff but, Ducimus makes some valid poimts.
Aprox. quote, "Remaining Provisions: 45 days", is not a bad idé. It would certainly limit the amount of time one could spend almost continualy submerged for bad weather and the like.
It sounds like a simple thing to add but, I'm neither a programmer nor developer, nor do I know how much time would have to be spent on historical research.
I think we're probably all guilty of taking, what BDU would consider, too long in getting to our patrol grids, at least on some patrols. A possible workaround solution would be to include a time and date to arrive on station. Being tardy costs renown, big time.
The devs seem to be taking our interests into consideration, and implementing whats feasable. I think they're not going to disappoint us. Actualy, I think their knowledge base has expanded to where they can implement the affects of dwindeling provisions without having to bog us down with all the details, which suits me fine.
