[Developing] Industries

[Ducky]

Does anyone know if there are limits as to how many types of cargo can be received by an industry? Could it, for example receive livestock and grain and grapes to make food? Or is there a limit of 2 in/2 out for each industry? Also, ona similar topic does anyone have the info for towns receiving cargo. Are they the same as industry or can they receive 4 types (mail, goods, passengers, food)?

Recieving is unlimeted, producing is limited, depends on what kind of industry of how much they produce.

[Ducky]

So, each industry can only produce 2 types of cargo, but can receive any amount?

the same with towns?

That's not what I meanted, what I mean is that an industry can recieve cargo (of what it needs) unlimited, but the production is only to a certain of tons per month. What the level per month is, is diverend between the industry ingame.

Towns can recieve unlimeted, but can produce only a maximum of tons/passengers per month (also unknow by me, search in the topic's, there are a vew with important info about max production per month).

[Ducky]

Sorry, i think we both have the wrong end of the stick

I didn't mean about volumes of cargo produced by an industry (i.e. 1000 tons/month of coal from a mine). I meant was it possible for an industry to receive coal, oil and steel (i.e. 3 types of cargo in any amount) to produce something else (goods, for example)

Yes, that should be possible, take for example the Food Industry (forgot it's name), it does accept both grain and livestock.

Cool! Thanks very much.

You wouldn't happen to know how to get towns to accept specific types of goods? For exaple if i was to edit the print wors to make newspapers, how could i get the town to accept newspapers?

If you need help just ask me, i will help you as much as i can, btw. my new industries pak is at 40% did some rebuilding WITHOUT new buildings ;-(((
and it will have the industries that were announced for the nl-region package.

[Ducky]

What sort of industries do you have in you industry pak?

Duck

[Loewe13]

from import terminals over a complete car industry to a bank inkl. mint
and all together are about 26 industries

as far as i can see and understand ducky ( i outrank you so listen ) industries can accept 3 different types of cargo and but they can only produce 2 different types of cargo:

<useobject desc="produces[0]" class="8">CHEMICAL</useobject>
<useobject desc="produces[1]" class="255"> </useobject>
<useobject desc="accepts[0]" class="255"> </useobject>
<useobject desc="accepts[1]" class="255"> </useobject>
<useobject desc="accepts[2]" class="255"> </useobject>

this is from the chemical plant as you can see. The layout is the same for all the industries. I'm not sure is these can be expanded to e.g

<useobject desc="produces[2]" class="255"> </useobject>

in order to produce a 3rd cargo.
Also if u want any help i'll do what i can, but loewe knows a little more than me, but i'll try

[Loewe13]

industries can accept 3 different types of cargo and but they can only produce 2 different types of cargo:
