Cargo Jobs Overhaul

[loud sinew]

as of right now? its the same as any other transport job
may we have players that could buy goods in one location and sell them elsewhere for profit.

for example you could buy "x60 Pineapples🍍" at Saint Baralku or Kauwela for cheap and sell them at Oskufloi where the demand for "x60 Pineapples🍍" is much higher

✈️ and of course the capacity of transport aircraft, like an A300 can carry 220 pieces of cargo while a 767F can carry 200
a 747BCF would be around 280-300 and a Beluga if not used for oversized transport, around 440-500

✨Rare goods, like an A318 fuselage, spawn in small quantities (4) every 14-18 hours and require an oversize transport aircraft with 500 cargo space.
🦀 Widespread goods like Clarence Crabs spawns 200pcs every 10 minutes.
(updated) Products may not always spawn at the same airport, so there might be more crabs at Udyanapura than Clarence

🚁Helicopters have smaller cargo capacities, ranging from 15-20 up to 60, and up to 90 for the large Mi26.

A Bell 206 could do small deliveries carrying 25 pieces of cargo and a CH-149 could carry 60

🛩️ This is great for new players, with smaller aircraft handling small cargo operations, carrying 15-38 units.

📉Selling items at airports where their demand is low will result in a loss, obviously if you're going to buy Umibutsu salmon🍣 and sell it at Kibo ur going to lose money

(updated) Goods WILL NOT have the place of origin in their name but will be sold much cheaper at their original airport, unless demand is high (which is unlikely).

Your Enoksen Inventory:
x130 Apples 🍎 takes 1 cargo each
x90 Salmon 🐟 takes 2 cargo each
x170 rice 🍚 takes 1 cargo each
x50 frozen pizza🍕 takes 4 cargo each
x190 mail✉️ takes 0.5 cargo each
**x1 B737 Fuselage ✈️ ** takes 500 cargo
x45 Antibiotics 💉 takes 3 cargo each

⚠️IF YOU CRASH YOU WILL LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR CARGOHOLD⚠️

now why

wtf

[loud sinew]

why did u react clueless wtf

[tiny pasture]

Actually now that i actually read it seems cool

Uncluelessed

[loud sinew]

its literally buying sht with your own wp and resell it for more wp

[maiden jasper]

carry 787-8 Fuselage to Lynwood on a Dreamlifter to spawn Special Delivery job

[dawn verge]

[loud sinew]

yessir

[knotty hare]

Or just carry a 787 on your an225

[loud sinew]

eh

more like another money making method

like ur actually have resources in ur inventory that u buy at airports and locations

and then that u can resell in other locations just as i explained or u could trade them w players

[gentle harness]

yeah

[gentle harness]

ig but i’d love to make a profit while doing so

As in you understood

[loud sinew]

Also the resource amount gonna change every cycle

for example sometimes it may happen there's going to be more microchips at Oskufloi than Sandris

[sharp parcel]

the An-225 and Dreamlifter can finally serve a reasonable purpose now

[loud sinew]

tru

[sharp parcel]

fun fact:- the An-225 was used to deliver metro carriages to Mumbai back in 2014

[loud sinew]

[sharp parcel]

that thing can fit in a lot of stuff

imagine how much transporting trains could earn

[sharp parcel]

oh also what would probably be a good idea is to have the cargo add to your fuel burn if it's especially large

[loud sinew]

i mean its massive

[loud sinew]

So you mean influence flight performance

[sharp parcel]

so you'd either need to make more stopovers, or choose to carry less at a time, yeah

fuel burn is one of the things that makes sense being affected

top speed and stall as well

and max altitude should always stay the same

[sharp parcel]

oooooo I just got an idea

what if you could get parts by doing jobs?

like it be the same rarity as the 787-8 job, and you get something as valuable as the F-15's parts

that would be crazy

and I can't wait for someone to tell me "oh yeah the devs are toootally free to do that" or whatever but it's a fun idea regardless

[loud sinew]

🤑

[sharp parcel]

it'd make most sense if it were like region-locked

so the jobs for the dehavilland comet's parts would only be available if you're in Auchenburgh or Anhedral

and stuff for the F-15 would be in like Norman and Lynwood

just a thought

[dawn plume]

[gleaming shore]

(With this please for the love of god buff the durability of cargo aircraft and change the capacity of bombers to reflect their payload instead of just crew capacity)

[loud sinew]

wdym

[gleaming shore]

large cargo aircraft suck for chaining because they are A: slow and B: have to fly huge distances to build multipliers

And then on top of that you have to pay more for fuel

I would propose making maintenance degrade slower depending on how high the capacity of your vehicle is - which would allow for long chain flights with expensive cargo aircraft that are currently useless

And about the bombers uh

A good example is the Beriev Be 10
It is a bomber and it can do cargo jobs
But it’s capacity is only four (the crew capacity)

[loud sinew]

"pay more for fuel"

[proper sphinx]

basically the way maintenance works rn highly disadvantages heavier, solwer aircraft

[gleaming shore]

Fuel and repairs are dependent on the dealer price of the aircraft

[proper sphinx]

a hypermach and an an-225 both can fly for ~5 hours at full throttle

[loud sinew]

how are yall that broke 💀

i mean maintenance cost aint that expensive right?

[proper sphinx]

but SSTs can get a lot more done in that same time

[gleaming shore]

Hyper can go for 7 hours of flight time but AN225 only 5 and a half, because you spend a lot more time accelerating on the ground (wastes durability)

[proper sphinx]

it's not about maintenance costs, it's about chaining

[proper sphinx]

[loud sinew]

am i the only one who repairs my aircraft right after they touch 80%?

[gleaming shore]

Point is that oversized cargo aircraft are completely outclassed and are more expensive than the better options

[proper sphinx]

do you never do job chaining ?

[loud sinew]

i do surv

[proper sphinx]

fair

the point is, large cargo aircraft can last for less time in job chains, have to travel way further to build up multiplier, and don't actually gain that much more than SSTs

hence why a buff is in order

[gleaming shore]

If you wanted to build a 2x multiplier in the AN225 (I actually tried this) it takes TWO HOURS of flight time

The TU-144S can do the same in 45 minutes while flying at Mach two
And the 144S and all other SSTs can also fly for a longer duration of time

[loud sinew]

so yall get a multiplier by flying?

[gleaming shore]

The problem is that the time it takes to build a multiplier is not proportional to the amount of time you can stay aloft in that plane

[proper sphinx]

if you don't end flight after doing a job, and instead take from the menu, you can get a multiplier on the next job

that's how SSTs earn a lot of money

[gleaming shore]

Well uh

this was a 5 minute job

[loud sinew]

after how long

[gleaming shore]

3h buildup

[loud sinew]

yeah exactly

[gleaming shore]

and there’s 3 hours of flight time left

point is that cargo planes straight up suck for chaining

Large aircraft in general

Because they can’t fly long durations

If they could fly longer durations than SSTs they would actually be comparable to the SST meta

this does not mean SSTs should be nerfed because they are also very expensive compared to smaller aircraft

[loud sinew]

#1337846914850361395 @gleaming shore

[loud sinew]

nerf SSTs

[vestal pagoda]

buying 100x Jeans 👖, dm me

i bet the goods can be tradeable

[loud sinew]

yes

[gleaming shore]

[grave agate]

no

an-225 cant fly that long on one tnak

tank

oh wiat nvm

i read more

[torpid thorn]

Oh you would have made bank in tesl in the 80s because there was a black market for Jeans in 80s Moscow

[loud sinew]

LEOVETSK 🤑 🤑 🤑 🤑 🤑

[torpid thorn]

Yeah western media as well was very sought after in Moscow as well so if it was the 80s in game cargo planes would be rich af

So yeah this would be a nice feature to make bank off the Northernest Mafias

in Tesl

what

i read it last night its not even a bad suggestion

[loud sinew]

you always say i shitpost i wanted ur opinion

[strange flame]

its a good suggestion

[loud sinew]

👍

[hushed portal]

ngl this would be a complete overhaul to how the game itself works

[loud sinew]

will it be possible

I think its a solid suggestion

[hushed portal]

anything is possible, the question is just how much sense it makes in the context of the current game

[loud sinew]

enough sense

Cargo aircraft are just like airliners right now

Their only difference is having no windows

So to me, it would be nice if resources Actually existed in game, of which only cargo planes or vehicles with a cargohold are able to carry around

which is literally what happens irl
