Industry Giant
This mod tries to add that Industry Giant feeling to Sweet Transit.
Current Features:
– passenger icons above train wagons
– product icons above train wagons
– product icons above commercial buildings
– product icons above factories and farms
– clothes icon tinted to make it better distinguishable from cut stone and stone icons
Coming Features:
– Mod-Splitting: I will split this mod into several different parts and re-gather them into a steam collection. This allows you to only pick the parts of this mod, which are interesting to you.
– Re-Balancing: This mod will contain its own balancing adjustments. I plan to completly remove the resource upkeep for everything. Yes, EVERYTHING. Simply because this mod will have a different play style than Sweet Transit, but I still want to combine the best of both worlds. More to that in the future!
– Deep Production Chains: I plan to add many different products to the game. Inclusive deep production chains! The end-game of this mod will not focus on resource upkeep like Sweet Transit. It will rather focus on supplying the people of your town(s) with important products for their every day life. Producing such products in different biomes / locations of the game world and transport them across the whole map will be the challenging end goal of this mod.
– Technical Modifications: There will also be some technical modifications to this mod, which is normally not possible with the currently available mod tools. I will need to go deeper into the rabbit whole to make certain features and feature requests a reality. For example the player @pastuh suggested to add the feature from Industry Giant which makes the stored products in a storage visible for the player by placing crate boxes for each single product currently stored in a storage. If the developer of Sweet Transit doesn’t implement scripting possibilities at some point, I need to modify the original files of the game like the "Sweet Transit.dll" library or do a "HARMONY" integration. It is also very possible that the community will do a general HARMONY integration with proper template support in the future. But all this is very unknown at the moment. However, I will of course try to push the limits of this "Industry Giant" mod.
