Factories Production

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.microprose.transport-tyc (More info?)

The most frustrating thing for me is reducing production by factories (coal
mines, oil wells, etc.) while playing TTD.
Is there any chance to control it?
I hold transported % above 80 or 90 and still some of them suddenly reduce
production🙁

Well, it is realistic, isn't it? Sometimes accidents happen, mismanagement
occurs, so it's only fair that factories aren't 100% reliable.

I agree it's a part of realism, but let's be honest, TTD isn't simulator!
It's a game to have really good fun, but this feature damage everything...

Can I turn it off? Maybe it could be a new switch in next TTD Patch version?

The best solution could be reward high % of transported goods (above 80)
by increasing production of the factory and punish low % of transported
(below 60)
by reducing production.
Ofcourse it shoud concerns only those factories which are using by players.

In some way it works now, but surprises happen quite often...


What do you think about it Josef??

Those aren´t "factories". Those are "primary industries". Factories are
"secondary industries". :^)

In fact, the feed rate of primary industries is set by random and its change
over time isn´t depending from transportation rates which only affect station
ratings, BTW.

No.

Yeah ... Especially oil wells are set to decrease production when off-shore
deposits are beginning to appear.

Oil Wells (Oil na ziemi) znika ... nie wazne czy wywozisz czy nie ... poniewaz zamierzenie twórcy bylo przeniesienie oleju na wode,
tam tez powinny sie z czasem pojawiac Oil Rigs

co do innych "primary industries" to wszystko jest losowe ... szansa na wzrost produkcji jest nieznacznie wyzsza gdy wywozisz
wiekszosc towaru ... jesli nie wywozisz lub malo wywozisz to wieksza jest szansa na spadek produkcji .. ale wszystko jest losowe

Sorry to all for using Polish language, but it's the simplest way for me to
describe SHADOW-XIII my point.

Tak, zauwazylem ze z Oil Wells dzieje sie cos gorszego niz z pozostalymi,
ale to jakos ostatnio (wydaje mi sie ze przed patchem 2.0 tego nie bylo).
Nie wiedzialem ze ma to cos wspolnego z Oil Rigs, dzieki za info, ale
niestety Oil Rigs jakos niewiele sie pokazuje🙁

Ale nie dlatego rozpoczalem ta rozmowe, wiem jak TTD dziala, gram od kilku
lat. Chodzi mi o to ze to strasznie wkurzajace jest kiedy zbudujesz
sobie wielka infrastrukture a potem nagle spada Ci produkcja i dupa blada.
Ratuje sie zawsze savem, ale to nie jest najlepsze rozwiazanie...
Pomyslalem wiec sobie, ze skoro PATCH zmienia wiele mniej znaczacych
szczegolow, mozna by sie zabrac wkoncu za to.
Ale nie bylem pewny czy czasem ktorys z przelacznikow juz za to nie
odpowiada, stad moje pytania.
"stableindustry on" mnie nie satysfakcjonuje.

Komu mam zglosic propozycje nowego przelacznika w PATCHu?
Z gory dzieki za pomoc!
POZDRAWIAM

Well, some people like realism. I do. I tend to not use ttdpatch features
which 'spoil' the realism. I never use cheats either.
Besides, this element brings a random component into the game, which, IMHO,
is good. If everything is totally predictable, it damages the gameplay for
me. (Of course, SOME things should be predictable...)

Josef is away on holidays, so you should ask this again in two weeks time.

A lack of leadership is no substitute for inaction.

on zmienia to ze poprostu nie zamykane s± "industry" ... te które dzia³aj± normalnie (a Oil Wells nie dziala normalnie) pozatrym
dziala to tylko z Economy: Steady (w ustawieniach)

> Komu mam zglosic propozycje nowego przelacznika w PATCHu?

to juz bylo zglaszane setki razy ale jesli chcesz modyfikowaæ fabryki w TTD to polecam TTDAlter (nie dlugo wychodzi wersja 4.2
która pozwoli modifkiowaæ nawet miasta i budyniki w nich)
