- mmh, how will this work for the Subs? ... how to setup?
- click, click, click, ...
- can just be in the MG
- click Goals (because there is no link in the panel for an often used report like the MG)
- click Manufacturer's Guide
- click the rocket-pencil
- decided to add an 2nd customized product... maybe then i find an magically option to set the WM650 for me and the WM800 for my Sub with the expertise for WM's
- damn ... which tech lvl did my sub have?
- click rightmouse to close
- damn the only window in cap where this is not working!!!!!!...

- where did i find now the needed info? ...
- right ... click Corp Details
- click Tech
- damn ... click the other Tech (Product)
- begin to scroll the list with all the corps ... i will be old before i reach the end
- cruise down to click "Sub only" ... wtf .. this is so hidden and fare away?! - it's fore sure impossible as responsible person to think about a second time or maybe its rocketscience?... anyway
- click, click, click

- click the rocket-pencil

- copy the needed picture for the Washing Machine
- rename the picture (Copy of - blabla is just ugly - personal thing)
- Alt-Tab back to CabLab
- click, click, click. click ... damn ... hold mousekey until i reach 800
--- maybe i misunderstood something and it is not designated for such a high tech lvl? maybe an fresh young self-explained UI https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface expert has made this in his school-coffee-break?
- anyway, then he has already more then 1 pimple
- nice ... fill in a name to find and identify my new product everywhere
- click rightmouse to close
- damn the only window in cap where this is not working!!!...
--- keep calm ... it's my fault that my expectations are to high... he is a kid and will learn... maybe... hopefully
- click Ok
--- for how much products will i use this great shiny custom? ... is it worth the pain?... i will think later about that... let me check now
- select again the proper fac
- click the manuf. unit
- damn - there is now the customize!
- just the MW650 will be shown
--- this will be a pain later!... atm i know that i have created 2 and 1 is above the tech lvl from my own Corp ... but this will be much funnier with the others and in the Subs (more later)
- select the 1 pic
- Change all
- wait that the old product is sold out
- set price for the new tech
- notification come up - link is down
- select the proper Warehouse to relink
