Generic/Universal wagons

[Dylan]

Has anyone made a mod yet with wagons that carry everything?

I know there's a mod with generic wagons until 1950, and there's another mod with a capacity of 2500 broken up into 150 slots/item type. I'm looking for just a regular wagon that can carry anything. Something like this existed for TpF1 and it was glorious.

You don't need a mod. Wagons already in the game can carry "all cargo".

I don't know of any all cargo wagons on the workshop yet. IIRC Nafey's stake wagons was that in in TPF1 + he did a New Industry version. so you could ask him.

Someone already has and he's said "when I have time". I'm impatient though and hoped someone else had picked up the gauntlet.

These brilliant wagons from Gr1m carry everything :

Oh, you're talking about train wagons, not trucks. Sorry.

The problem with Nafey's wagons were they could only carry 4 units, game ones carry 7+, yet they cost the same.

I never used Nafey's wagons. They just weren't worth it. Maybe he'll change that for the TPF2 version.

It's very easy to make something like that in TPF2 then it was in TPF. And not time consuming either! I'm surprised no one has tried it yet.

The 1850 cargo wagons in the unmodded European vehicle set all have 4 capacity in Transport Fever 1; it's only the American ones that have 7.

Additionally, it's only Nafey's 1850 Universal Stake Car that has just four capacity, and it costs the same as the 1850 European Stake Car, or just over half as much as the 1850 American Stake Car. Nafey's 1890 Universal Stake Car has 11 capacity - 3 more than the 1890 European Stake Car's 8 capacity and just one less than the 1895 American Stake Car's 12 - for a cost slightly less than that of the 1895 American Stake Car, while Nafey's 1950 Universal Stake Car has 14 capacity - one more than the 1950 European Stake Car and four less than the 1952 American Stake Car - for a cost only slightly greater than that of the 1950 European Stake Car.

Moreover, even if it were true that Nafey's Universal Stake Cars were more expensive than the unmodded limited-cargo ones, they'd probably be worth it on a lot of lines, because being able to use the same wagons to carry cargo both ways is incredibly advantageous, and it's much easier to make that happen with a universal wagon than when using the unmodded wagons with their restricted cargo types.

Don't forget the "Wagons carry both raw materials and finished products" mod. It may do what you're looking for.....

What about this mod Dylan?
"(...) wagons are Universal Cargo/Passenger Wagons.Each having an extra compartment for Passengers.(...)"

Thanks for the tip @Claude. That's not quite what I'm looking for (and I realize I'm probably being too picky here). That mod has a separate 150 unit capacity for each type, which gives it a (in my opinion) game breaking capacity. The capacity/unit can be modified, so each wagon can only carry, say 20 units total, but then it's only a few units/cargo type. What I'm wanting is a wagon that can carry 20 of any one item.

Hey. Not sure if you already know but I've updated the mod for TF2 and made it compatible with industry expanded.
