Won't play Railroad Corporation, will put it back for later

[Lord El Supremo]

Got this game and all the DLC on sale. I won't play financial simulators without a working money cheat being available. And there is absolutely no mod available for this game to change the money value. The latest edition of Cheat Engine doesn't work with hardly any game made after 2018. The table some hacker produced to insert into CE doesn't work, either. I do mathematical and software experiments with simulators and have fun hacking the software to test its limits. Achievements are only important if they unlock progression. Winning or losing is irrelevant for me. But I can't seem to hack this game after trying for about 4 hours. I've looked at every angle. I scrolled through a great deal of code, particularly interested in Assets files. And using "Find" to search for values among the copious code. I looked at enough code to know this is above my pay grade to hack. I'll uninstall this game and play it in later years when WeMod comes up with a trainer. In the meantime, Railway Empire is great game. And I can hack it to play the way I want to play. I just bought the Australia DLC and I'll play that instead of this game. I'm uninstalling Railroad Corporation immediately after I type this. Without even playing it. If I can't play my way, I won't play at all. I don't like being pigeon holed. Or feeling like a rat in a Skinner Box.

You could see this comment as a big compliment to the makers of the game.

I was not going to respond, but I did see the OP as a positive for the game.

So now that I'm typing ...

I don't really have a problem with single players doing whatever they with a game, if Cheat Engine makes someone feel good, well, it's probably not as bad as heroine. The OP does make the case clear it isn't about "beating" the game with a cheat, but exploring/testing the game. I actually like the idea of someone using an exploit to figure out how to "break" a game, but then they need to see if the thing they found can be done without the hack to get something really satisfying to my way of thinking. "System identification" is pretty interesting.

I guess my only hangup with the OP was giving up with dramatic flair instead of asking if anyone knew of a way to get what they wanted to work. Maybe they already asked somewhere else, I miss things sometimes :)
