mfw lets not add more micromanagement

[scenic drift]

The plugin shop needs an update🫩

[frigid fractal]

YES

[plain bough]

I had something sinilar that would add less micromanagement but its alright ig

[pulsar panther]

I think would be great for city revenue
We can tax these goods imported by introducing tariffs on whatever has been imported

[floral depot]

I think this overcomplicates the game tbh

[plain bough]

It was based on an idea I had that I think would create less overcomplication but it was going to be too long so I decided to keep it short

But it's your view ig

[floral depot]

I mean i kind of get that but having to manage the industries/trade feels like it is easy to make it complicated
And it is kind of the business’s decision of where to trade and where to get resources from

[plain bough]

Ok gotcha

Hey man tbf in makes the game Moe realistic people quit theotown cuz they think well mostly think it's too boring and no where close to other games in terms of realism like sim city or cities skylines also I think it just adds a challenge to your world and theotown in general and you will Finally have a useful use for Freight trains and maybe just maybe a cargo terminal so it does kinda have potential you see but don't think they r ever gonna do this tbh

[drowsy oasis]

You lost the argument when you started comparing Theotown to other games

Theotown isn't supposed to be on the shadow of other games

This game is unique, and lets keep it that way by not suggesting features already on other games

[frigid fractal]

True true

But it would be cool to see this in TT tbh cuz industries have no use except for providing jobs and supplies which only a select few industries do

But this will take a longgg time to make

[drowsy oasis]

It will lose the unique nature of the game

[frigid fractal]

Your right but then again theotown is addictive anyway this will just make it more addictive but if they won't add vanilla then someone could make a plugin for it ig

[floral depot]

Cargo trains do have a use for me at least for indrustrial/commercial traffic
I think that having to manage resources on that level would lead to the game becoming overly complex(and also some things-such as rebuilding cities will become even more challenging)
And for the players who think theotown is boring, which is a valid opinion to have, you can do a lot in theotown because you have freedom and dont have to worry about some systems that you would have to irl

[frigid fractal]

Woah woah you're not wrong but I never knew you had to transport freight supplies to commercials?!

[floral depot]

I mean some truck traffic is industrial<->commercial allegedly
