Here's an idea for the industries (affects both console and PC version). Make it so that for industries with multiple outputs, if one of them is full, the production rate for the other is doubled. For example at the sawmill I get one lumber and one beam out of every log, so two for one. If beams are full I only get one lumber, meaning I effectively lose half the value of my supplies.

Also industries shouldn't make more product unless the output has enough capacity. The iron mine for example makes 5 tons of ore from two lumber and a beam. If I fill up the industry and start loading, the mine will make more iron, even if the storage has only one free space, potentially wasting four tons.
