Re: New types of rails (curves, s-curves ...)

The real question is, if we have ships, would we be able to build a ship-shipping ship that ships shipping ships?

All joking aside, I seriously went looking for a mod that added at least rail containers when I saw that thing about containerization. Never did find one, sadly.

But if we have ships, then a landfill train bridge would block a shipping lane.

More scenarios in the base campaign

... What ? There could be more to the storyline after making the plane and flying off in it. A lot more can be done with the aliens, rockets, colony ships, etc. Not to mention there's a large part of the tech tree that hasn't been demonstrated in the campaign. For example: Between beta/level-2 and ...

Power generation ideas...

... would also be a good choice for the Bergius process. (I've never heard of a real COSAD power station, but big freighters, tankers, and cruise ships use their diesel exhaust to heat up the fuel oil bunkers otherwise the stuff won't flow through the plumbing properly.)

Re: Travel over Water: Boats, Ships, Canus / Bridges / Tunnels

bridges: again a dirty way to code it but you could make it so that when a train gets onto a bridge its collision is turned off for the duration of it being on the bridge as the game already overlaps graphics already based on where certain things are placed thus using that one could make a "br...

This is an ideal world and underestimates the needed space to "look good". https://i.imgur.com/K8lpkEur.jpg?1 Some thoughts: One circle is 12 tiles, one rail is two tiles and you should leave 2 tile between them to set signals etc. The tunnel entry takes some length to look realistic, I th...

Re: Travel over Water: Boats, Ships, Canus / Bridges / Tunnels

We need tunnels because of throughput issues, we could have different recipies for different tunnel lengths and expensive research or something as this issue of thoughput will only arise in the late/end game.

Re: Travel over Water: Boats, Ships, Canus / Bridges / Tunnels

This would allow for the creation of awesome continents based maps. Each continent could have some unique variation of a resource example sugar plants to produce power from (with extra processing) instead of coal. This could allow the addition of archipelagos areas to mine rare resources off little ...
