Larger reserves

The current automatic reserve of a corporation's production is 100% of that which is contracted.

In the event that production gets interrupted, the company will fall short of its obligations, which can cause the buyer to fall short on stock for production.

The solution I've found is to manually set the reserve to 3 times the contracted amounts to reduce the chances that it will affect a buyer.

The system currently allows companies to produce more than 100%, but not reserve more than 100%.

Another reason to allow for a larger reserve is to stockpile in anticipation of opening a new corporation, which will then need to be stocked, causing a surge in demand that is predictable.

A 3rd reason is to stockpile goods that sometimes surge in 1 country or another, rather than stockpiling within the countries.

The limit of 100% production of 1 month seems arbitrary, and counter productive to using corporations domestically.

3 months looks like a better proposition.
I will look into it.
