Instead of shipping range set at each branch, wouldnt it make more sense to do shipping range at the factories?
Ive just started a new playthrough based in Europe, starting with a factory in Berlin and branches in central Europe.
Then, I expanded into France, starting with a branch and factory in Paris.
Now, the problems I am having:
- Setting shipping range on some W.German cities to only receive vehicles from Berlin is very tricky. The Range to Paris and Berlin is very close and almost impossible to get one and not the other using the slider.
- Having to set the shipping range of half a dozen branches is very finicky and time consuming.
Now, both of these problems should be easy to solve with the 'district shipping' feature - having central Europe as a separate custom district.. But for whatever reason, it doesn't work most of the time - might be user error.
Now, most of this clunky-finicky confusion would be solved if the shipping range was from the factory, rather than to the branch - Having a range slider so we can have local factories making cars for local only and international factories making cars shipped worldwide - without using Districts.
(Then, also possibly having a list of branches as an alternative, so we could just tick cites instead of setting a range)
