How do you utilize Bulk Terminals & Trade Ports

Post by RJL »

Having upgraded some GRF settings etc., I see there are now additional industries etc, including Bulk Terminals and Trade Ports - see attached screen-shots.

How does you interact with these facilities?

Any info. most welcome.

Thanks

The bulk terminal likely acts as a normal industry, ie you have to build a station or a dock to access them.
The trade-port has a little ship and aircraft in its name, so it likely behaves like an oilrig, try sending a helicopter or ship to it

"Bulk Industry" and "Trade Port" would be industries that comes from FIRS. But the graphics that I see included in the screen shots do not conform to FIRS' graphics set, but what looks like NewGRF Object sets. So I have no idea what's actually going on in the screenshot or what NewGRFs are being used.

Perhaps AuzInd?
I know GarryG uses FIRS as starting point, and he tends to use many different graphics from various sources, including self (quite successfully, I may add)

I thought that, but I just took a look and that's not the case. So now I really would like to see a save game and try to figure out what this is! :)
