With the updates to the game, I no longer felt this was necessary so have discontinued and unlisted it (its been unlisted for quite some time) but I left it for existing users who had it subscribed. Sorry to hear its not working on linux, but there's little I can do.

This mod causes TF2 to hang when run on Linux.
I switched from Windows to Linux.
The about 350 mods I used ran on Windows.
It took me a weekend to figure out which were blocking the start on Linux.
I found a few of them, mostly German mods.
Also this one causes TF2 to hang on startup at about 80%.
Probably an issue with file names.

@kincaid - its possible that the new update has broken things with this, due to the changes to cargo demands within a city. I would think that perhaps this mod is no longer needed?

At around 1900 in my game my city started to demand tools. Short after that the demand was gone, then they demanded tools again and this goes on now for a couple of years. Is this normal?

no worries was just curious as to whether there is a parameter within a town that can be used to determine the rate at which new cargo building spawn relative to the primary types. Maybe things are a bit different now with their implementation of additional town demands. If you ever get some time and feel motivated to get back into the game and modding I'd be interested to know if it's possible.

Hi @Davey McBallsack - unfortunately, I have no clue, I haven't had time to even give the new update a good going over, let alone think of modding things as of late.

I loved this mod before the latest summer update. Unfortunately now the game adds in the additional cargo demands at a much reduced ratio to the main 2 town requirements. Is it possible to modify the ratio so that it spawns the new cargo types at a similar ratio to the initial ones?

Thanks for making this mod. I wonder if this would become compatible for with latest "Expanded Production Chains [BETA] 1.3"

The quantity in-demand increases based on size of city and your supply, as normal.
The idea here was a kind of evolution of "things" over time, ignoring how simple the stock items are. i.e early days - lots of construction, mid - a little more advanced and final - higher tech (well, if you can call machines/amazon parcels higher tech) but along those lines anyway :D

Shouldn't the amount of demanded products be related to the size of the city instead of the time in history?

Not the point of the mod, sorry Michael. There are other mods that increase the available goods / production chains.

Nobody needs alcohol and other new products ?

OK, thanks. Different Link, newer version, and author. Should be corrected above though.

This Mod is no longer available on the Steam Workshop:

Compatible with Industry Diversity by Magnetic Reaper
- Adds new resource chains and city demands

? is it not working or something, admittedly not played for a while, but sure it was ok about 2 weeks ago

Can you update the mod the latest version? Thank you

Would it be hard to create a version that is a 4 items dynamic growth? I think 4 is perfect for variety in cities, but really enjoy generating needs dynamically... I'm quite torn between the two versions.

Howdy FxUK, just wanted to say it's awesome how active you are in the comments answering people's questions!

I had a question myself, how this mod influences town growth. With additional demand of different resources, does this mean if I meet these new demands the town could grow much faster as well? Thanks in advance for any clarification!

Is this rebalanced, concerning city growth: If I supply 1/1 Food for example, will the city have a 100% bonus growth ? And if my chain breaks for whatever reason, Will my population tend to go down by half. If this is the case, it's the pop ratio will be too sensitiv.

Great mod i just came to this question tho:
If i supply a city with all 6 instead of just 2 goods, (and lets assume i nail a 100% supply rating) does that also mean that ill get 3x as much extra population from supplying all 6 types of cargo?

I got it, thx

Dynamic is random items, you start with random items per city.
In 1920 you will get 2 additional random types per city.

Progressive is fixed, you always start with food/construction in all cities.
In 1920 all cities will always get tools / fuel added.

Hello, I'm sorry, English is not my native language, and I can't understand difference between Dynamic and Progressive versions of your mod. I already read both mods descriptions twice or more, and they look pretty similar for me. Can anyone clerarly explain the difference to me please?

Looks like cool mod. Only mis a option that it depends on the size of the city. Like from 750 population an extra product demand is created in stead of the year.

Are you delivering the sand to an industry too?
I must admit, although I am playing with the same industry mod atm, I have been testing more than playing recently. I'm wondering if it produces 100 fuel and 100 sand, rather than 200 of whatever is in demand, if that makes sense.

Might be worth checking with Col0Korn (assuming it is Industry Expanded)
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1950013035



So this means if i produce Slag and Steel i also have to care about the slag?
Immersive
Didn't realise this because you don't see how much the output (or outputstorage) is

good job :)

Any news about this? "Currently, The zoomed out overview (City name/icons) does not show the additional demands"

@merlinx_AT what do you mean description seems wrong?
The other mod, industry diversity, will work with with 3 of these mod variants, the only one it doesn't really work with is the progressive one because that has fixed city outputs by date.

Hello,
description seems wrong.
Industry Diversity https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1940082959 needs Expanded Cargo Demands (4 per city)

Awesome, will have to remember that one myself

The sand was the problem, thank you very much for your help!

No, do you think, this is the problem? I will check this.

Thank you for your quick reply, I've tried it but unfortunately nothing has changed :( I add a screenshot with the city: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1963310769

@weoiss - Yes, try and position them so there is a bit more coverage of industrial buildings, you should then find the 100 (Versand) from the factory will increase and more will be output and deliverable to your city.

The same (or similar) problem can be seen if you completely disconnected the line from industry to city, it will still accept raw materials and produce output, but they will be discarded by the factory because there is no ongoing demand.

If I unterstand you correctly, I have to increase my truck stops at the cities? :)

Ok, so the industry can produce enough, but it seems like you may not have all buildings demanding fuel, in the truck drop-off catchment areas, the 100 (Versand) shows how much demand you have for that factory. Screenshots helped, I was mistaking your question originally ;)

I've made two screenshots, I hope they explain my problem: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1962841950
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1962840013 there you can see that not enough petrol is supplied, although the industry could theoretically produce enough. Thank you for your help.

Unless I am mistaking your question, that is. As in, you don't have enough output to supply all your cities with the additional demands.

It will increase the max output of industries, but your cities only accept what they accept, until they grow. If you use it on vanilla, then its a bit "cheaty" but if you want to supply all cities with all demands, then you either use something like this to produce enough cargo... or you have a larger number of industries on the map, i.e low towns, very high industries.

Will it increase my shipment level?

@weoiss - since you have more cities to supply with cargo and the vanilla industries have an output cap, I would recommend one of these:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1935745533
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1935720873

I have the problem that the needs of my cities grow with the population size, but the industries do not provide more goods.

@lux3y - actually, I might have found a away to fix compatibility with the Town Building no end year mod - watch this space

Also, its worthwhile to note that a 50% growth modifier doesn't mean a continued growth of 50%.
It relates to 50% over a base value.

That's no different to how the game is vanilla, when a city is small especially. When you supply a the demand, you get a percentage growth modifier that is essentially the percent you are supplying of the demand. So when the town grows, the % modifier will begin to drop until you supply more product. The percentage will lower and settle just like the vanilla ones do, until you supply more products to satisfy the now higher demands.

This kind of mods have a problem. The secondary demand is easily satisfied (low quantities needed) but they offer a huge percentage of growth boost.

What is the solution for this ?

p.s Thanks for providing the mod list, at least I now know the cause, have updated the description of the two dynamic ones that it affects.

It will be due to: Town buildings: no end year mod.
Essentially, that will be making the game ignore the buildings era's and my 2, 4, 6 mod selects demands based on the era of the building being constructed. i.e Era A = 2 demands, Era B = 4 demands, Era C = 6 demands. Nothing I can do about that, at the moment, I'm afraid.
