However if you do NOT set a district lock on Cairo branch, instead say you set shipping distance to 20,000km it WILL pull from every factory within 20,000km.
And personally I do not see the need to set the distance anymore. A well set up district works much better.
Quote:So your locked branches will only pull vehicles from factories located in North America.Yes as it should be.
Quote:You could for example set EU West branches to pull from North America as well. In which case your EU West Branches would pull vehicles from North America Factories. Your EU West Branches WOULD NOT pull from EU West Factories.Again why would I want to do that, I do not like shooting myself in the foot with added transport.
If I wanted to subcontract from lets say Mexico, I would just add my mexican factory to my Europe West district.
Quote:I haven't double checked the code yet, but assuming it's correct, individual factory "shipping estimations within distance" should be correct. As I mentioned before this is because multiple places can pull from a single factory. District lock does not limit a factory's ability to ship to places, it only limits a branch's ability to pull from places.It's is bugged as I showed earlier I had 4 cities drawing from London, but it reported only the London nr., in other words to little.
So basically what I am saying is that you really do not need the shipping distance anymore. Just force the player to add every new branch they build to a district. And have the option to change district later. If they do not set up or use smaller districts, global should be the default.
It will make the game easier to play, and faster to learn. And maybe less of a headache to program.
