Industries which accept passengers.

Post by mauried »

I found a number of Industries in the ECS basic and machinery vectors which accept passengers, although its not obvious, ie unlike the Oil rigs the Industry doesnt indicate that passengers are accepted.
If you however build a passenger station near one such industry it indicates that passengers are accepted.
Some example are Steel Mills, Vehicle Factories, Furniture factories , and Power plants are ones Ive found so far.
Does the industries production rate increase if passengers are supplied?
Tnx

I've never seen this behavior. Can you provide a save game showing where its happening?

Heres a little map I made which hopefully shows whats going on re the passengers.
So far Ive only found 4 industries which exhibit this behaviour.
Furniture factories, Steel Mills, Vehicle Plants and Power Plants.
Using JGRs patchpack 0.39.
Theres some screenshots and a small savegame.

If the industry doesn't say "Requires: Passengers" in the industry window then delivering passengers won't affect production.

Yes I realise that accepts and requires have differant meanings in the game .
There is no sensible economic reason in the game to have industries which accept passengers, but the provision of the passengers has no effect on the industry, and the industry doesnt make passengers.
