Hi,
I started adding the new modifiers to industries. So far, the following is a basis:
| type | electr. | pax | mail | total possible |
| Farms | - | 50% | - | 50% |
| Mines | 80% | 50% | - | 130% |
| Producers | 100% | 50% | 20% | 170% |
| Consumers | - | 120% | 50% | 170% |
| Markets | - | 150% | 50% | 200% |
| Power plants | - | 80% | 50% | 130% |
Thoughts, ideas, opinions,...? The underlying idea is that the upper stages can out-boost the lower ones, giving you a potentially stable flow of freight. (Or so I hope!)
So, at full production (all pax & electricity delivered) we'll have farms producing at 150%, grain mills at 270% and bakeries at 270%. Am I right? That gives a relation of 1.8 farms per mill, 1 mill per bakery.
If current production values are untouched, then we'll have over-demand. That's what you mean with the out-boost producing a stable freight flow?
Yes, that was the plan. Of course, this is just the initial test... I based these ideas more or less on vague ideas such as "no electricity in fields", or "more connections - more communication (mail)" etc.
BTW, productivity upgrades are now possible, too, but not set yet...
