Thanks for feedback!
P.

There are products such is Bird Cage with very low demand (0.080) - and these products are absolutely unreasonable to produce becouse demand is too low, so my suggestion is to increase demand of all products to a minimum of = 0.300 , or = 0.400, becouse it really has no sense to use such products - and these products remain untouched, they just keep space in game potential.
I tried to produce Bird Cage and the demand of only 1 unit of a shop would be veeery low, and no profit.

here are 2 images:

These I set up as medium = 300 capacity These I set up as upper medium = 500 capacity

Can I just have a copied version of the modkit folder and that will work too because it is showing an error of an image that is missing? Thanks.

How do you guys deal with the earth-shattering lag once the script for the competition head-start has run?

My game slows down to like 1 day every 20 real life seconds at that point.

If you are using v6.5.x, please upgrade to v6.6.11 as the game has been optimized resulting in faster running speed.

Hey piermario! Awesome MOD really enjoying it, the sheer breadth of options makes for more interesting gameplay.

With the new tweaks to fuels it seems like production is now in line. I am however struggling to place enough retail stores to meet demand. This seems to be true for most of the large markets, computers, insurance, fuels...etc. It also seems like natural resource firms are having difficulty keeping up with the mega factories. My paper mills are always timber starved even with multiple logging camps. I also had to buy up every gold deposit to supply the insurance industry.

Basically it seems like the Damand and Factory output are much higher then natural resource output and retail capacity.

I am running 10 maxed cities and I'm not using the city DLC, so that might be a significant factor. Maybe a difference environment setup will work better?

Thanks!

What is the output capacitiy of the mega factory? It's difficult for me to figure out how a warehouse set up should be to be in line with the production of the mega factory and if it should be a small or large warehouse.

Same question about the input side, as I always run into supply shortages in mega factories, so I'd like to buffer some inputs, or I have to use warehoses when vegetables are the main inputs and a single large farm seems not to feed the mega factory.

I don't know about you guys, but I gave this a shot today, and with the script, the game crawls to almost a halt at around 2030.

Thousands of firms, and a day takes about 3-4 seconds! That's like totally unplayable! And I'm playing on the latest version.

What gives? Is your experience different? How long do you play 2070? 2100? or just 2020?

I'm thinking:
1. editing the script to reduce city count
2. Remove the script entirely
3. Play without the mod altogether!

With 10-15 cities I played with no issues up to 2040. At that time some cities were that full of AI that I could not find 3x3 space, not to talk of 4x4. But the game flow was okay.
