[Suggestion] Make "best available" equipment take resources into account

from Elemental Forums

Custom and designed units that use the "best available" equipment sometimes can't be built because I don't have the resources.  For example, I unlocked some magic boots but I ran out of crystal.  Sometimes I have to create a new unit and specify lower-grade equipment.

Not sure if it's possible at this point, but what if you could build the best available with the resources you had?

That would have to be told to the user somehow, or you could think that you are producing badass units and it turns out they are crap cause you didnt notice you ran out of metal.

I usually create my uber troop  and then create an economy version.

Upgrading just needs a more in-depth interface in general.

good point.  maybe have the icon greyed out but have a button where you could choose to build a sub-optimal version with what you have.
