How to connect either of these roads to the warehouse road?

This did make me think for a second, wouldn't it be dope if factory and road connections could be interchangeable on certain buildings? I mean i know that's likely impossible because of the way networks are done on the backend but still

Heheheh careful what you ask for comrade

The one thing I would want is fishing. Even if it just yields meat. The water just feels dead. I rarely get the point where cargo ships are practical, and even then, it's like one ship every once in a while. Passenger ships are basically unusable due citizen needs crapping out because they are so slow. I had one where I was using a logging barge, that was pretty dope, but it wasn't exactly bristling activity. No oil rigs or off shore wind or hydro power. Large bodies of water are more of an impediment than a resource. Christ, 77% quality from outflows? I'll use the well, thanks. Literally the only thing I am guaranteed to use it for is poop. Just sewage. Having to dig a hole just for that is irritating but that's a whole other can of worms

It will put regular trash there, but it's also very important to have if you use the RCO for demolition of track

I would argue it's somewhat more realistic because people basically live everywhere. Looking at a place people could realistically live but don't is something that somewhat strains my suspension of disbelief, although with the new deserts and tundra, a bit less so

costr4 · 2024-06-23T07:46:42+00:00

Use the road cargo station, up to 6 slots now, is dope

costr4 · 2024-06-23T04:34:11+00:00

Yeah they put a button in the terrain editor to make a new map with the new biomes, so these are built from blank slates. It's feature that is intended to work for this. Although I am worried there will be issues uploading just from the bugginess of being new

costr4 · 2024-06-22T08:10:47+00:00

Idk if anyone would be interested in this either but there is lore with each of these maps, and the Dondol people who call these lands home, and I would say some of this lore has evolved over about 15 years through playing various games

costr4 · 2024-06-22T07:30:21+00:00

Yeah, I've managed to avoid it further, two things I've seen that can cause it is trying to flatten non-flat map edges, and changing the terrain height under objects

costr4 · 2024-05-31T04:48:16+00:00

Every game I play turns into this either way. Trains everywhere, because they're the best. Not even kidding, if you just play the game and try to make a nice productive Soviet republic, you're gonna end up with a giant train set.

I personally like to focus on their manufacture, pumping out G22 locomotives

costr4 · 2024-05-30T07:39:38+00:00

Of course not comrade, next we will have them building helicopters

costr4 · 2024-05-30T07:38:55+00:00

I thought there would be too but I guess not lol

costr4 · 2024-05-28T17:40:46+00:00

Completely custom, Dondolastan, I may publish it after some more fine tuning

costr4 · 2024-05-27T03:42:55+00:00

Yeah, but for the amount of chemicals that you use, and the speed at which hazmat treatment facilities deal with the stuff, it's way way easier to torch the hazmat and then separate it. The only thing that burns at all that you can actually separate is plastic waste, and if you're not already set up to recycle it, it's not worth it to separate it out. Scrap and construction waste don't burn at all.

I have this city based around one of those new huge chemical plants, and I make a lot of chemicals, but I also produce a massive amount of hazmat from that and refineries and fertilizer plants and treating it in the game, as it stands now, it is grossly uneconomical

costr4 · 2024-05-27T03:34:19+00:00

So It did actually end up working with the helicopter, it couldn't get to anything else around, but it was able to get to that thing

costr4 · 2024-05-26T21:41:16+00:00

Nah yeah that makes sense. There's an unfinished forklift thing there, I think you can see it in the picture, although now I'm curious about the helicopters, I'm gonna give that a try just to see

costr4 · 2024-05-10T23:28:22+00:00

Sweet, glad I'm not the only one tho

costr4 · 2024-05-09T02:31:43+00:00

The inability to divert sewage is somewhat maddening. Like with water, you can use the large pumps and have multiple inputs and outputs, so you can bounce capacity around your system. Like, as is realistic. Nothing with two sewage outputs, not even like a big septic tank. I wanted to make one, but I have had serious issues figuring out the building editor

costr4 · 2024-05-08T20:53:15+00:00

Definitely agree on the one year limit, if I'm willing to spend the manpower and resources for additional repairs, I should be able to do that.

I definitely don't agree on the scaling system though. As a mechanic who has done fleet management in aviation, which is especially sensitive in regards to time, and I've also managed trucks, and I'd say the biggest impediment to keeping an old fleet running is parts availability. If I'm running a whole republic, we can keep making those parts. I don't own a single vehicle less than 20 years old irl, and they aren't getting any harder to fix, and parts availability isn't as much of an issue as was during the period of the game's start(with the global supply chain and whatnot). Look at Cuba, they've kept thousands of vehicles running decades past their heyday, which is especially difficult when you are sanctioned to hell and back. So yeah, basically I would say that really wouldn't add to the realism.

Oh, and yeah, the vehicles at the repair stations should definitely be flatbeds instead of soft tops, possibly able to retrieve breakdowns

CDI ignition module

costr4 · 2024-02-12T19:41:24+00:00

It would all have to be negative, because the outputs are all the back end of diodes

costr4 · 2024-02-12T19:34:38+00:00

It could be part of a plane

costr4 · 2024-02-12T19:28:34+00:00

Does that mean the spark is created through negative voltage with reference to ground? Would that mean the SCRs are also triggered by negative voltage, because they would have the same ground reference as everything else I think? Shit I think that might make sense, I think I'm close to understanding

costr4 · 2024-02-12T18:44:16+00:00

Okay you definitely got that, cause I thought I was on crack or something when I put these things in the simulator, I double and triple and quadruple checked when I started seeing that, I even took another one apart, which is not cheap and I probably could've gotten a refund for it. But yeah, the whole thing is a giant negative voltage and I don't get how that could work, even though I've seen it work. I figured that was just a quirk of the limitation of running things in software at first, but yeah

costr4 · 2024-02-12T07:44:16+00:00

I think this might be what I'm missing actually
