[IMPROVEMENTS]: Stock market boards change % column is "misleading" and should be based off base value instead of previous value #1114

What do you think can have quality-of-life improvements?

Stock market board

How do you think things can be improved?

The stock market board only shows the % change from previous value to current value, this isn't explained anywhere ingame and it is quite misleading if you want to know the best time to sell something.

For example, lets say lumite is down 10% from base value one day, the next day it increases by 8% so ingame stock market board will show +8% on lumite. You'd think that this is a good time to sell since its up by 8% but this isn't actually the case since it is still down 2% from base value which means it can increase at most another 12%.

I suggest adding another column or changing the stock markets change % to be off of base value instead of previous value. A simple way to present change from base % rather than previous is to negate 0,90 from current multiplier, basically whichever value is current_difference in the API.

I can add a new column but I can't change the existing system, the reason behind this is because every single material would constantly be in the "red."
