Thief^ wrote:Alternatively, how about "industry will close in 6 months unless it gets some stuff delivered"? Instead of instantly closing. That way you'd get enough time to serve it after the message to stop it closing, or you could see before you started building that the industry was going to close and not bother building to it.

frosch wrote:Good evening, I proudly present to you the "Manual Industries" Set.
It offers great game play and perfectly adapts to your personal playing style - no matter whether you prefer realistic-playing or power-play

How to play with it?
1) Copy the grf in your newgrf resp. data folder.
2) Start a new game using it
3) For best gameplay press Ctrl-Alt-C and turn on "Enable modifying production values" and "Magic bulldozer".
4) Enjoy full control over any aspect of economy.

The features:

• Works in all climates.
• Full control over in-game industry creation using the great "Build Industry" window:
  • No stupid automatic industry construction that spoils every future plans of your transport company.
  • No stupid costs for funding industries, when they won't belong to your company anyway.
  • No stupid restrictions like banks only appearing in towns with more than 1200 citizens or oil wells only available before 1950.
  • No stupid restrictions about the availability of certain industry types only for certain climates.
• Full control over industry destruction using the innovative "Bulldozer" tool:
  • No stupid automatic closing-down of industries which will shortly gain big profits when you connect them to your transport network.
  • No stupid industries in locations far more useful for nice junctions or stations.
• Full control over industy production using two nice little "increase"- and "decrease"-buttons from the industry window:
  • No silly random production changes, which are not related to any sane reasoning.

Unfortunatelly the grf cannot be combined with other newgrf industry sets
I guess to authors are too ignorant to understand the real needs of great gameplay.
