Advertising Costs deducted from firm profits, remove ad unit

[harkkam]

Hey guys I noticed that each firm will be charged the cost of advertising.

It makes no sense to display an individual store/firms profit against advertising that every store selling the same product benefits from.

It makes it seem like that particular store is under performing when you do an overview of all firms in your company.

I think that advertising shouldn't be done at the firm level.

Simply a new dialog box where you select your product and you use a simple slider on how much you want to spend.

advertising units in firms doesn't really go with how advertising is done in real life.

I used warehouses as a work around, yesterday, I'm going to try to increase all wholesale prices by $5 as the "Advertising" cost and see if I can bring in enough cash for the warehouses to report a profit.
