It's been a while since I updated so here it goes.
I've been working on balancing issues such as starting money, production line growth rates, costs, employees, etc. As of right now I'm pleased with 1900 and 1980. I'm about to check 1930 and 1950 to see if the interpolation between 1900 and 1980 provides good results for 1930 and 1950...
Also I've done significant improvements and bug fixes to the AI. Found a real nasty bug in the AI system that prevented the AI from selling from reserves. This means the AI was charging much higher prices than it really needed to, to compensate for the over production of vehicles. Needless to say, repairs to this bug has allowed the AI to reduce its prices 200% more...
I've also added another 100 AI to the game and enabled the AI amount selection when you name your company. For slower computers you may want to choose less AI.
Difficulty and amount of AI now effects AI's starting money. The money is to compensate for lack of competition.

"great writers are indecent people, they live unfairly, saving the best part for paper.
good human beings save the world, so that bastards like me can keep creating art, become immortal.
if you read this after I am dead it means I made it." ― Charles Bukowski
