Description:

Welcome to ERT!

Basics

Enhanced Resource Trading is an addon that overhauls the existing coal buying and selling gantries, while still keeping the basic in-game lua and scripting.

This addon aims to make the coal buying and selling experience better for locomotives, while keeping the original scripting and overall systems in-tact. Selling points were also revised to make selling easier for longer locomotives.

Included

-New coal buy point at North Harbor.
*North harbor’s buy point also has a point for trucks to sell, and a seawater tower for locomotives.
-New trackside coal buying location on the Mainland.
-Overhauled mainland mine gantry.
-Overhauled Sawyer mine gantry.
-Overhauled arctic selling point.
-Overhauled Sawyer selling point.
-New mainland seawater tower for locomotives.
-New mainland island track seawater tower.

Read-Me

(IMPORTANT) Please make sure to disable the default resource trading mission before starting a game! This addon replaces that mission, so simply enable the new mission in the other tab.

-The arctic will not receive any buy locations, instead it will continue to have only a sell location. Part of the lua scripting determines selling prices by distance from other buy/sellers, meaning that placing a selling location would ruin the selling price.

-This build keeps the original lua from the default mission, so credit to the stormworks devs for that!
