Cargo Flow Chart

Graphic chart depicting the complete flow of goods through the Transport Fever manufacturing processes, including train cars needed to transport each product to the next step in the process.

Cargo Flow Chart

Here is a simple to follow flow chart depicting the entire manufacturing process in Transport Fever, including train car requirements to move product along each step of the manufacturing chain. The chart is designed to print as a quick reference guide for people new to the game.



Each facility shows input on the left and output on the right. Each row of input depicts the item or items required to enable production. For example, the Goods Factory has 2 possible lines of input. Planks and Plastic will produce Goods. Planks and Steel will produce Goods.

The Machine Factory is a bit more complicated as it's two different products require distinct inputs. In order to produce Tools, one must input either Planksx2 or Steel. In order to prduce Machinery, one must input Planksx2 and Steel or Steel and Plastic .

As noted on the chart, if one allows Slag to pile up at a Steel Mill, once it reaches its storage capacity, production is slowed from Steelx2 and Slag to Steelx1. When one reduces the Slag in storage to levels below storage capcity, full production will resume.

Production lines which allow a single train car type along the entire chain are marked with an asterisk. There are 2 of these type lines, 1 for Commercial Buildings (Livestock->Food) and 1 for Industrial Buildings (Crude->Fuel). Due to the great cost efficiencies they provide, these are desirable starter routes for manufacturing.

(For those completely new to the game, "Open" Cars on the Euro maps are called "Gondola" Cars on US maps.)

Ditto to the thanks for making this very useful flow chart!

[Mike Crosley]

I can't thank you enough for this. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

Just remember, to really make good money, ship cargos both directions as much as possible.

This is really helpful. I never could get a high production steel plant and now I know why -- build-up of slag. Many thanks!

Just wanted to say thanks for the very useful chart and I really enjoyed the billion dollar baby video.

gesundes neues
schönen dank an die Modder
Ps: an die Programmierer- langssam nervt es wirklich jedes mal ein Update und nichts funktioniert mehr-einfach die Speilstande mit der aktuellen Version beim start kennzeichnen und im Spiel abspeichern nur lauffähige mods speziell der wirtschaft veröffentlichen- und keine sinnlosden abdates an Sonn und feiertagen-

1. Verbesserungern -extra Tool für Map anzeige
2. seperate speicher funktion der der eigenen Favorisierten Mods die man dann ganz einfach in ein neues spiel einfügen kann

Habe volles vertrauen das es nicht wieder 2 Jahre dauert-vorneweg einfach mal die Aufgabe durchgehen und dann loslegen

Ich drücke euch die daumen

Can you clarify how output is linked to input?

For example I'm confused by the behaviour of the Food Processing Plant. I had assumed that it produces 1 x Food for every 1 x Meat OR 1 x Grain delivered to it. So, 100 x Meat produces 100 X Food. But in my game the Food Processing Plant constantly complains that it wants more Grain, or needs more Meat. What does this mean?

Is it expectng a mix (e.g. is it producing Meat Pies) or is this just noise that means nothing?

thanx to share this ,very usefully

A minor alteration - I *think* I'm right in saying the chemical plant takes either one oil or *two* grain to make plastic... the chart only shows one grain.
